: I was covered in dust after cutting/sanding away at this thing for over an
: hour - tossed the clothes in the wash.

I hope you kept the respirator on while you removed the dusty clothes. If not, then you are at risk of sucking in a lot of that junk just when you think you are safe.

And wash clothes several times before wearing them. If they itch, there are still remnants of glass and resin embedded in them.
