Sorry, but it is a fact that lead is absorbed through unbroken skin.
In the same manner as a patch for smoking.

Although, I don't have a wimis data sheet on me.

Some Stain Glass workers use gloves as
the lead can be absorbed through the skin.

freshwater at a high enough rate to cause a problem. But Red should
avoid eating the lead during his project.g
