The teraethyl lead in the avgas will rapidly absorb thru your skin
into your bloodstream. Your eyeballs will absorb it at least an order of magnitude more quickly than your skin. Getting large quantities of leaded gasoline on you needs to be washed off with soap and lots of water asap. Too much repeated exposure to TEL thru skin absorbption this way, and you might even want to have a blood test done to check how much lead you've accumulated and if you need to be administered some calcium EDTA orally or IV, depending on how much lead is in your soft tissues. |
