Butter.
Any oil or fat applied will dilute the oil stain on your skin. Scrub or wipe off the majority of it then use a soap or detergent to get the rest off. Nitrile gloves before getting dirty solves a lot of problems. |

Every auto parts store sells orange pumice soap or something similar. It works pretty well.

 Honestly this is the best. Its $89 for four big tubs, but local franchise man can sell them individually. If the sludge is suber bad, ill spread it on like lotion and put gloves on and the greas pops right off |

Quote HistoryMy granddad kept a big tub of that in his shop. After we worked on whatever old rusty greasy machine, we'd plunge our hands in the tub and rinse at the hose. That smell will take me back. It always had a faint solvent odor, and I think it had lanolin. Probably banned now for cancer risk. |

I usually use dish soap to scrub. Later I will drop hydrogen peroxide under my nails. That seems to always do the trick.

Just leave it and become ok with looking like a capable male for a week or two.
Maybe buy some Carhartt's and put in a chew while you're at it. |

Trim your nails short, keep them at the minimum length. It also helps reduce tearing them off in incidents. I use the GoJo with walnut shell for soap and a nail brush. The red cherry soaps make me break out like crazy! I've had pretty good luck power washing whatever I planned on working on ahead of time. It makes things easier in general.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Pro tip, using Dawn for grease removal will lead to dermatitis. Don’t do this ^^^^^ We had guys in the shop wash their arms and hands every day with Dawn. They all ended up with dermatitis. It sucks all the oils out of your skin. I scrub off with dawn after work almost every day. No skin issues here. |

No water needed, you can keep them near the work and clean up in the middle of the job and don't need any towels to dry off. Not greasy or slimy at all. I picked up a sample at SEMA and they are pretty damn sweet. Buy the big container, the small container has tiny towels.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Clean grease also works very well. This- I always wondered why a buddy of mine kept a tub of cheap wheel bearing grease on his wash sink. Nasty, grimey hands? work some clean bearing grease into them well, wipe with paper towel. Now wash with your soap of choice (mine is Boraxo). It works |

Quote HistoryQuoted: gojo or similar liquid pumice soap This. And a small nylon brush to scrub the more heavily greased parts and under finger nails. I never wear gloves when I work on my vehicles. They make my hands very sweaty, the tear all the time and I don't have the feel for things as I do when using my bare hands. If I did it for a living I definitely would wear them though to minimize my exposure to chemicals. |

It comes from sheep's wool. |
