Working in the KEC industry I deal with liquid potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide and caustic beads on a daily basis... Chemical burns are part of the job even if you're protected, the product always find an unprotected spot to get to! I've had small burns on arms, hands and face but nothing very bad, I always try to be careful but like I said it's part of the job!
