For all the rebuilders with dirty hands (This really works)

[DaveDanger]

rpickle, I'll weigh in with one more suggestion... I remove gasoline residue and smell with Clorox Comet Cleanser and a scrub brush, I then wash that off with regular hand cleaner.

With the wide variety of chemicals, greases and oils that I run into in an aviation maintenance shop, I wash my hands probably 6 to 8 times a day. There's no way around drying out one's skin. I simply keep bottles of moisturizer all over the place... one on my toolbox, one in my truck, computer desk, end table... you get the idea.

Thanks DaveDanger, I'll give that one a try. Not sure pntrdave's match trick is what I am looking for though. Have used gloves in the past that were supposed to be resistant to petrol, didn't like them at all. They were cumbersome and tore easily.

Later folks.

You guys clean your hands after wrenching? What a bunch of sissys.

hell ya, chicks dig greasy hands. :lol: When I get REAL dirty (caked old oil up to my elbows) I use Gojo pumace, works pretty good.

I continue to remind the "chick" that I married, that she fell for me in a worn out t-shirt, jeans with holes in 'em, and grease up to my armpits. She mumbles in return that the t-shirt & jean sizes were all different then and the armpit grease was from an external source....
