I normally use disposable plastic type gloves (similar to the one that comes with hair dye). But once I did not use it for a minor touch up job and faced the same complaint in my fingers. It was quite uncomfortable for some days but eventually it healed totally. I am sure you would be ok soon.

A quick question,

I have read and seen on youtube that the cold bluing is done using a piece of soft cloth or cotton. Has any one tried applying it with a brush, or it is not used for some reason???
