  I was about to say that adding water would be bad in the case of lye, but after some research it seems I was wrong. Probably watched/read "Fight Club" too often. Apparently using an acid like vinegar to neutralize lye is more painful than flushing with water and creates a lot of heat because of the strong reaction.[1,2] So the recommendation actually is to just flush with water for 15 minutes.[3] [1]http://itonlyadds.blogspot.co.at/2012/08/on-chemical-burns-vinegar-and-liquefied.html http://itonlyadds.blogspot.co.at/2012/08/on-chemical-burns-v...
