It's exhausting when you have to constantly be on top of a child like this, saying Don't Touch 1000 times a day every day. But you have to do it. I agree that you shouldn't feel guilty if you have to put him in a chair or playpen for short times to give yourself a break, but don't give up. It will pay off.
Something that I did a long time ago when I had a child like this was to print out a bunch of little Stop Signs. I put them on the things that the child was not allowed to touch. I also gave some to the Mom because she was having the same problem at home. With both of us doing the same thing, the child learned fairly quickly with that method.
