I want to know what will clean oil,and grease off of hands?

Question

My friend is really bummed out because she cannot seem to get the oil and grease off her hands after working. (She is a mechanic.) She has tried some pumice soap, degreasers, nail brushes. The works! help! What can she do??

Answer 1

spray them with wd40 and scrub with a tooth brush

Answer 2

I don't really recommend this. But when I worked in the forest and had to cut down pine trees, we would use a little tiny bit of gasoline on a rag and rubbed it on our hands. It would get even all that pine tar off, so I would image it would do the same for oil and grease. Definately wash your hands with regular soap after.

Lava brand soap might work too. There also some stuff they sell at hardware stores like Autozone that doesn't require water. You just rub it on your hands and it take all the gunk and falls right off. You could give that a try as well.

Good luck

Answer 3

Wash hands with Dawn liquid dish soap. Next get salt and lemon juice and rub hands together briskly. Keep rubbing hands together hands until hands come clean. Follow with Dawn. Use a nail brush to clean under nails and cuticles. Soak nails in ammonia to whiten.

Answer 4

Swarfega. it truly is a eco-friendly, gloopy gel that shifts grease better positive than something i comprehend. The trick is to placed it instantly onto your greasy or oily fingers, rub it in properly, then rinse thoroughly. do not use it very regularly, because it strips the oils out of your pores and skin that may cause them to dry. in case you placed some moisturiser on afterwards, this can forestall the dry pores and skin. lower than is a link to Swarfega's web site and then a link to an eBay search for for it.

Answer 5

The best thing I have found is Dawn dish washing liquid and very warm water.
