Most of you have seen my chassis fab thread and are aware of how much welding is involved. When I had the chassis upside down so that I could finish all the bottom welds I burned my fingers. Very badly. I had just run a weld on a 2'' piece of tubing meeting the main rail. Turned and ran a 2'' bead on the other end of that same 2'' tubing. I then turned back and placed my left hand directly on the previous weld. Less than 30 seconds after making that weld. I burnt the pads on 3 fingers. The ring finger was the worst. Burned from the tip to the first joint.
Here is proof of my absent mindedness... Yes that is my finger print... And no it didn't take long to test the temp. But It did not even blister because I used the Corona ointment immediately. You have to apply it immediately and keep it on the burn continuously for as long as you can. I was completely pain free by that evening and didn't have to apply it the next day. It has been a week and still no blistering or peeling of the skin. If I had not done this it would have been a nasty blister and would have taken a long time to heal. It sounds way to good to be true but I swear by this stuff. I have multiple tubes of it in the shop. I keep a tube on the Mig welder. The wife keeps a tube in the kitchen too. Get yourself a tube and use it on any burns that you get. You will be glad that you did.
Corona is a horse ointment. I buy it at tractor supply but Amazon has it too. A friend told me about this stuff years back. She rides and had a fancy stud that she wanted to have branded. So she made the arrangements to have him branded but when she got him home she was concerned because it was a nasty looking burn. So she used the Corona to tend the burn. She did it multiple times a day until it was healed. When it healed it also disappeared. You could see just a slight difference in the slickness of the skin where it healed. She wasn't happy that the brand disappeared but was very happy about how well it healed.
