Best Answer

Sodium Hydroxide is a powerful alkali which reacts with the natural oils in your skin and converts them to soap which results in a "soapy feel" on the skin. The NaOH rapidly eats away at your flesh. Wash your hands immediately with plenty of cold running water and then with soap and water. Finally a rinse with a little vinegar and water and a heavty rinse with warm water.
