E.g. "As a case example, one worker (case 1) splashed his left leg while transferring a cleaning solution of HF and sulfuric acid between containers. He did not irrigate the area and continued to work for approximately 1.5 hours with soaked pants and shoe until he developed an uncomfortable burning sensation" ...
"...Upon evaluation, the patient was reported to have a quarter-sized brown necrotic area on the anterior left ankle and burn to the anterior left lower leg. Emergency medical technicians irrigated the area with calcium gluconate and transported him to a burn unit, where he received a calcium gluconate injection. He sustained a small area of full-thickness skin loss requiring excision and debridement with a skin graft. The worker received outpatient burn therapy and returned to part-time work 6 weeks after the injury. A foot paresthesia developed, and the worker received a permanent partial disability payment."
HF diluted to <1% is used to wash cars, and only idiots don't wear skin protection while doing that.
To reliably etch glass, you need concentrations of 10% or preferably more, at which point you really want a PVC apron, a face shield and a heavy-duty fume hood to work with it, to avoid the sort of exposure in [1].
