I mean the sugary kind you can buy at WalMart in bottles.
I used to be an acoustical ceiling mechanic and some days we rolled a lot of it outThere are a few good solutionsFirst, wear long sleeves to minimize the problem(obvious)Then wipe down with acetone; it will dissolve the fibersBut what I found to be the absolute solution is to just put on my bathing suit, plunge in the pool, and swim for at least five minutesI guess it washes it out of the pores, but it works every time!
While working with it, all possible body parts should be coveredUsing as cold of water as possible for shower afterwardsHot water causes the pores to close and hold the fibers in the skin.
First lets hope he is wearing a maskWhenever I had to work with the fiberglass insulation, I use to use talcum powder all overEspecially my neckback and armsThe talcum powder blocks the poresPrevents the insulation from in bedding into the skinOther than that, I don't know of any remedies.
If you can get into your attic you should be able to follow your duct work from the air handler to the rooms and find your trouble spotIf the house is newly built then I would contact the builder to find and fix itIf it is an older house that is new to you then maybe your home owners insurance will cover itIf the air handler is in the basement then you might have a harder timeIf the insulation is in only one room that should narrow it downWhen the break or hole is found then you can patch it with foil duct tapeI wouldnt be a bit surprised if you found it was made by a mouseIf the insulation is going to all the rooms then it's most likely really close to the air handler.
dying fabric requires a 'mordant' to treat the natural fiber prior to adding the colormordants give the fabric and kind of coating for the color to attach and soak into the fiberdifferent fabrics require different mordants, but alum and cream of tartar are the most commonyou can use the grocery store kind or fabric/craft stores might have the saltsthe earthguild link has the recipes for different mordants and fabrics I have tried powdered kool aid dying in the past and yes, it does fade with repeated washingsI haven't tried with the liquid kool aidI imagine the sugar acting strangely with the mordantthat might be kool, pun intendedsoak the fabric in the alum solution for several hours prior to the dying processgoing from wet-to-wet lets the fabric soak up the color betterthe longer you leave it in the dye, the deeper the colorand even if you hang to drip-dry, throw it in the dryer or set with an ironthe heat will help set the color into the fibers.
