0 BigGrassBass Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Take a deuce and "Be a man, use your hand." (You just said you want to get rid of the gas smell, not make your hands smell good.) Seriously, I wash my hands in a soap/pine sol mixture. That seems to take it away just fine.

0 heat checker Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Try toothpaste, our custom manure hauler says it works great to take THAT smell off his hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Ya Hey Der Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 washed with soap and water a bunch of times already. I just tried the lemon juice and it helped a little bit (didn't realize how many little cuts I had on my hands, guess I won't be doing that again for awhile). Thanks for all the other suggestions, gonna go get some diesel and try that out now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 paceman Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I also use toothpaste to get the Fish slime off my hands after cleaning them. GO-Jo works great to get gas/deisel off.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Gissert Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 Jet A is tough to get off too. The mechs here all use a citris based hand cleaner, and it works very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 eyebjim Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 I wash with gojo (preferrably the orange) then wash with dawn dish soap then with regular hand soap. If still there do all three again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 dan z Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 brake cleaner, wd-40 or gun cleaner... then wash with antibacterial hand soap. then use lotion to get moisture back on your hands the cleaners will dry your hands out and that aint good in the winter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Ya Hey Der Posted December 24, 2008 Author Share Posted December 24, 2008 I tried the toothpaste last night and it worked. Not sure if it was because I washed my hands a bunch of times with soap and water and then tried the lemon juice before the toothpaste but it worked. Thanks!
