and many others that have the guts to try it.. that rubbing alochol, works great, it only burns for a second, but then there is no burning, itching, rash, etc..
the reason for the rash welts burning is simple the points of their nails are so fine they actually go into the pores of your skin, with their nails also comes all the dirt, bacteria that is picked up by them.. it goes into the pores as well. the alochol will clean out the pores as well as sanitize it..
what we have done is take a plastic box, with an airtight lid, bought those cosmetic pads, and saturate them in the alochol, by pouring it over the pads.. and what we have is instant releif.. as a seconds notice.. we have done this with the gouges we get sometimes as well.. from missed aims on the gliding shots..
