Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Look for irritation at the site of a small wound. Check for an ulcer. Recognize when you feel pain. Check for a foul smell.

Answer: Jungle rot makes its home in wounds you already received.  Tropical ulcers generally occur in small wounds.  Inflammation of the skin will begin soon after the wound is infected, starting small but increasing quickly in size.  You’ll first notice a papule (lesion) that is raised slightly and brown, red, or pink in color.  By the fifth or sixth day, a pustule about one centimeter in diameter will develop on the site of the initial wound. The affected skin might be reddened, itchy, and scaly. As the inflammation continues, part of the skin will progress from a rash that's itchy and scaly to dry and peeling. An ulcer is a serious sore or lesion accompanied by a breakdown of nearby tissue.  On your feet or legs, the ulcer will cause severe tissue damage, bleeding, and possibly a grayish slough (a layer of dead tissue separated from the rest of your skin).  The center of the ulcer might be yellow or red.  It might be oval or round in shape. If you have jungle rot, your ulcer could be from half an inch to thirteen inches in diameter. Your ulcer's size will depend on your overall health and nutrition.  The healthier you are, the less serious your ulcer will be. The ulcer will grow quickly during the first three weeks, then slow in growth until it reaches its maximum size after about six weeks. The first two to three weeks of jungle rot are the most painful.  Walking and standing might become nearly impossible due to the pain.  In severe cases, there is marked disability where one is unable to walk. This may occur when the infection spreads to the tendon, sheath and the bones. You can relieve pain with adequate bandaging.  Use a non-adhesive dressing and change it daily.  Wash the wound with clean water between dressings and pat dry. When the pustules burst, they exude a stinky mixture of blood and pus.  In the later stages of the disease, a foul smell might also indicate that your muscle tissues have begun to rot and die.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Remove any masking tape that you applied earlier. Apply a topcoat, if necessary or desired. Wait for the topcoat to dry and cure before using the object. Reassemble the hardware, if necessary.

Answer: You must remove this before adding the topcoat, otherwise you risk sealing the tape under the topcoat. Carefully peel the tape away from the surface. If you get some chips in the paint, fill them in using spare paint and a paintbrush. If you applied spray paint and get a chip, spray some paint onto a tray to make a puddle, then apply the paint from the puddle with a small paintbrush. You can apply the topcoat the same way you applied the paint and primer: brushing or spraying. Again, make sure that the topcoat you are using is suitable for the type of paint you used on your object; an oil-based topcoat will not work on top of a water-based paint. Also, pay attention to the finish of the topcoat: glossy or matte. Not all paints require topcoats. Polyurethane and epoxy paints are durable and act as topcoats as well as paints. Spray paints and latex-acrylic paints do need top coats. One of the reasons paint and topcoats turn tacky is because they did not finish curing. Leave the object alone for a few days, or however long it takes for the topcoat to cure. Read the label on the can of topcoat to find out the exact curing time. It could be anywhere from a few hours to several days. Only do this after the paint has dried and cured. If you apply it too soon, you will risk damaging the painted surface. If you stripped the caulking away earlier, you can apply fresh caulking at this time.
