Getting oil off your hands

suew · Sep 22, 2013

I'm probably the only person who didn't know this, but just in case there is anyone else

I found a way to get the stubborn oil stains off my hand, the ones that swarfega doesn't shift like down the side of your nails, in cracked skin etc. Its quick and doesn't involve soaking hands for hours or using strong chemicals like bleach.

Toothpaste and scrubbing with a nail brush. Removes it immediately

I use washing up liquid and sugger rub in wash off hands clean better than any other hand cleaners

similar, but I find liquid soap works better.
or just a bar of imperial leather and a pan scrub...

It's the stubborn bits that a pan a rub doesn't get that I mean

from experience deb grained orange hand cleaner is far better than swarfega but nitrile gloves are even better

A small pile of washing powder in your palm, make a small dent in it, fill the dent with washing up liquid, rub it all it and rinse.

Washing up liquid and salt is what I use or washing powder granules if a have no Swafega

Flash wipes. Fantastic.

Then let the buggers dry out and use em for fire lighters/keeper goingers.
