When I last posted I said that I felt it was the superglue that I was using that caused problems but I've not had to use it much over the last few days and still have had a reaction (sort of like a cold coming, streaming nose, etc). The only other thing I've been using is Tamiya polystyrene adhesive in a bottle. I always used to use Humbrol liquid poly but my jar has got a "child proof" lid that has now become Dave-proof. I can't get the thing off no matter how I try! Because of this I've had to use the Tamiya one all the time. Are there likely to be any differences between these two adhesives?

I do wonder if I am getting caught in the same position as Alex and getting a build up allergy? I'm now using a fan to blow air around but it's not totally effective. I'm also using a face mask but it see,s to be getting in through my eyes too, despite using glasses. I'm almost at the stage of working outdoors to see if that makes a difference!
