Cut finger with Olfa...

I was tinting a pair of Jeep front roll-ups; I went to clean the inside glass and custy was right by her truck with a horrible look on her face! I looked at thr glass and had no idea...so I asked, what's wrong? She says, Oh My God, you're bleeding everywhere! And I was. I noticed the blood all over her door and the bottom of her driver's door glass when she said so. She grabs a band-aid off her dash (I don't know why either....) and wraps me up. I have to tape a blue shop towel around my finger for the rest of the install because it's bleeding so bad! She was kind of freaked out but I just worked a little slower. It's awkward gripping an Unger with a wrapped up pinky! Lol

I'm guessing the panel was all plastic so ya didnt stain it... that would suck to get blood in the fabric.
I tinted my w/s with a new ceramic flim today and somehow f'ed up a nuckle and was smearing blood over the w/s while hitting it with my hard card... not enough blood for a medal though... :(

I got a 'film cut' along side my fingernail after handling a cut pattern for a new Altima last week. I didn't realize I had done that until I saw blood drops on the seats and door panel! Luckily it was tan leather and wiped right off, but the dang thing wouldn't stop bleeding, so I wrapped three bandaids real tight on my thumb. Throbbed like a m#$^%r, but the bleeding stopped. Had to wash all my tools too...it got everywhere.

Last Thursday while tinting up a used Matrix at the Honda dealer, I cut the hell out of my left thumb when installing a new olfa blade. I cut a one inch strip diagonally and it was pretty deep at the bottom edge. Bled for 45 minutes...kept soaking thru the paper towels. With 3 windows left, I finallly had two of the service writers wrap 2 large bandaids very tight to stop the leaking. Six days later it's still a problem working with it. Probably should've had a couple stitches because the edges are healing a bit splayed out!

Once was holding my Olfa in my mouth with the blade still extracted "unknowingly". Slid it out, cut my tongue and cheek. Looked a helluva lot like Heath Ledger in the Dark Night. Told them Tintn' Ain't Easy then drank alot of beer that night to sterilize it.
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
