Vinegar epoxy cleanup
Anyone else out there use vinegar for "un-cured" epoxy cleanup? The standard version of grocery store white distilled vinegar has worked for me for many years. I use denatured alcohol to thin epoxy for brush applying, but wipe up and clean my hands with vinegar. Very low cost too!

Vinegar epoxy cleanup
I never tried it for soaking a brush in,... Only for cleanup. I think the epoxy would set up in the vinegar anyhow, since it is a chemical reaction. However, if you spill epoxy on your favorite shirt, rub lots of vinegar into the area and then immediately follow up with a good soap.

You're supposed to WASH your hands afterward!! 
The "lingering" smell is soon gone, and breathing it does not constitute a health hazard.
