Epoxy: Clean up of self and tools

I've been told that vinegar works for skin and rubbing alcohol for tools. My instructions from CLC say acetone for tools. Do both work, is one better than the other?

Also someone told me that rubbing down arms and skin with an old nylon stocking help avoid glass splinter irritation after working with the glass cloth.

Just checking--I finally unpacked my box of parts last night and hope to start glassing the panels ASAP.
thanks for the help.
