RULES & REGULATIONS: GENERAL (ALL FACILITIES)

(7) Solvent contact with the bare skin should be avoided, as most solvents will remove the natural skin oils and lead to excessive skin flaking.

(8) The use of paper or fabric towels should be forbidden. Washrooms should have electrically powered, warm air dryers.

(9) Approved lint-free gloves, powder-free finger cots, pliers, or tweezers should be used to handle material or parts if feasible. Fingerprints are a contaminant and should be avoided.
