Although this seems obvious now that I've figured it out, this itchy issue was driving me nutz for a while. Check out my video to learn more...

I haven't had this problem but will remember the tape trick. Good idea.

Someone suggested using a vacuum cleaner to remove any lose fiberglass particles from the bag. Much less itchy supposedly.

Nod,

You are a genius! I've had itchy hands, on and off for ages. I knew it was fibreglass causing it because I've worked with it before and know how mad itchy it makes my hands, but i just couldn't figure where the glass was coming from. After watching your video I checked my lipo bag and sure enough, the glass lining is all frayed and it's shedding fibres

I might stick in some sort of cloth lining inside the bag.
