Cross Contamination
....Using markers on open skin and then reusing them, using saturated paper towels to open ink bottles, answering the phone and adjusting machines with dirty gloves these are just a few of the problems that I am trying to enlighten some of the different artists i know about. It doesnt make sense that if you autoclave your stuff, use barrier film, and say you care about cross contamination that things like this dont upset you and people dont understand. However when I tell people about this stuff when I see it, its like I am the asshole...or arrogant. How do I get through to people that your tattoo is only good if you ddont KILL SOMEONE with infection. ANyone egot any good links, articles, etc I can maybe print up or something?

Re: Cross Contamination
i posted this if FEB 2006. Not a single fckin reply. It blows my mind. I still see people cross contaminating in different shops, conventions, f@#k...i saw a guy tattooing and eating a cheeseburger at the same time ones in TX. f@#kIN A!
I think with the constant overflow on this board of "shop talk" and "trade secrets" maybe get some of this s&!t out. What training do you have? What are you required to have by state? Maybe if scratchers think we are so cool, they will start to think sterility and cleanliness is cool...and stop tattooing on couches...let alone the dirty cretins IN our industry. |
Re: Cross Contamination
I may be nobody but I do respect the importance of NOT cross contaminating. I have had numerous co-workers in the past that did things like answer phones, touch this that and the other while working on a customer. I try my darnedest to do all I can to make sure that I'm not the one causing an infection for the client.
I hear ya loud and clear. |

Re: Cross Contamination
i think thier should be as many questions about improving bad habits as there are on making their art better. like you said if someone would point them out to them they would know. its bad........ where are their mentors?
