- 1). Run a warm water bath. Add a generous amount of Epsom salt. Soak in the bath for 20 to 30 minutes. Rinse under a warm shower. This will remove any lose fiberglass splinters as well as help with the itching.
- 2). Look for visible splinters in your hands and use tweezers to carefully pull them out.
- 3). Tear off a strip of duct tape and gently stick it to the affected area on your fingers and hands. Pull the tape off slowly. Use another strip of duct tape and do the same thing, only peel it off in the opposite direction. This will help remove splinters too small for you to see.
- 4). Slowly run a pair of old nylons or stockings over the affected area. The tiny splinters of fiberglass will get caught on the nylon material and come out of the skin.
- 5). See a doctor if you still feel pain and discomfort after trying these remedies.
