What types of chemicals were you using? It sounds pretty familiar as I has happened to me as well but was the result of not using gloves when handling lacquer thinner. You really should use gloves when handling anything harsh. The skin peeling is a good indication that you should exercise caution whith the chemicals you're using and pretect yourself with gloves, masks, and the such.
