Personally, I'm very obsessive/compulsive when it comes to my work. I always wash my hands before I work on a project. Now, I do travel with my projects, but each has it's own project bag and it is not exposed to any food/drink, etc. I think if you are extra careful then you won't have to wash your project when it is done. Come to think of it, I've NEVER washed any of my projects and I haven't had any problems.
