Alright i work with chemicals cleaners and toxic adhesives,and i wear a half face mask when i use them, but still get exposed to them when other people near by use them (im not wearing a mask) After working 4 years my legs are feeling week , and feels like they slightly shake. I read the msds for the solvents and it does say it causes weekness in the legs. So what is being done right now, is it nerve damage? Will it ever stop? Can i get tested to see if its the chemicals are causing this?

It appears that from the info you provided, there's a very good chance that you are correct on your assumption and the fumes you inhale are most likely the cause of your weakness. First answer these questions:
- Do you feel pain when you walk, sit, run or anything like that?
- Can you even run with this weakness?
- Have you seen a doctor
What I suggest is the following. Take some time off work (probably what you're already doing) and try to see how long you can walk around in a circle (if you are able to walk). Every day, try to get a higher time then the day before. Eventually, you will get your strength back. And if you don't, then the problem then probably exists deeper into the tissue and you will have to consult a physician and most likely get an MRI.
Hope this helps and best of luck to you

Well i was away from work for 9months for other reasons, im not getting any pains while doing anything. I just feel weak in legs and although there is no apparent shaking if feels like my nerves are shaking. I can run, i guess i should see my doctor

In this case, you should see your doctor. I'm not sure how you will be treated, but this won't stay forever.
And another question, is it your entire leg, or certain parts of your leg
