Default Glasswork Safety Tips

Hey Gang,
I piddle with glasswork, mostly epoxy. I do r/c boats. I'm curious as to what safety precautions others take to protect their health. I wear gloves, a mask and work in a ventilated shop. I know that certain individuals will become "sensitized" to the epoxies, does this usually come about right away, or is it a slow process? I have heard the argument that nitrile gloves are better than others? True? Any input or practices are always appreciated. Thanks
