Been there have the red/brown stained tshirt. Most of my scars are on the left hand.:redface:
 
Three things:
1 - CA GLUE
2 - NO, I repeat, NO accelerator
3 - Yes, it burns! I told you NOT to use the accelerator:)

Seriously, I'm glad you are ok. Secondly, I'm sure you now realize the importance of having a quality first aid kit WITH butterfly "sutures" and antiseptic solution nearby. The antiseptic burns but a little But the pain is WORTH It to miss an infection that often occurs with deep "shop cuts".

Keep it bandaged and use antibiotic ointment. It will heal faster since wounds heals when moist not all dried out. Did you have to get stitches?
I hope that you heal quickly.
 
tell you what though, that CA glue REALLY works! :embarrassed:

did you feel light headed or anything? Glad you're at least able to make this post.

If I had never stuck my left hand into a spinning table saw, I would agree with you.....
 
I have tried super glue, all it does is burn, it does NOT coat over the injury, I just gave up on the super glue, nice that it works for some people!!
I have the medical version and it works well to keep wounds from reopening AFTER the bleeding has stopped but does not replace a bandaid for me.
