Rub your hands with baby oil.

Paint Remover is the only thing that worked for me.
I just finished using Kilz on my attic door to cover up some water spots.
Tried Acetone, Paint thinner, Mineral Spirits--no luck. Tried Paint Remover--Bingo !!

For water-based Kilz, the best thing I've found is just to take a good long shower! The humidity and moisture seem to help it separate from my skin better than anything. For the most resistant areas (for me, always my forearms for some reason!), brush gently and persistently with a soapy nail brush. Not the greatest for your skin, but it gets the job done!
(Good choice on your primer for your bathroom, BTW. That stuff is great!)
Best of luck!

When in an uncured state, i.e. within 2 hours, Killz comes off with soap and water. After that, nothing but wear will remove it, and I mean the wearing off of your skin! It should be off within a few days though.
Good luck

Use paint thinner, finger nail polish remover, as a last resort gasoline, but never in your home. Only outside in fresh air where there is no chance of a spark. And for gods sake don't smoke while you're doing it. The fumes and flames are hell.

if its oil based kilz you are gonna need some paint thinner or mineral spirits use a rag and wipe it off its not gonna be real easy but it will work just make sure use plenty of soap and water afterwards to wash off the paint thinner and maybe some lotion

If it's latex based, soap and water should work. If it's oil based, you may need to use paint thinner (mineral spirits). I think Kilz comes in both forms. I'd try soap and water first.

Use Mineral Spirits. Basically Paint Thinner. After you use it, wash your hands with dish soap, than apply a good lotion or moisturizer.

we used fingernail polish remover and next time cover your hands with liquid soap then let it dry before you paint i even use it before working on the car or lawn mower it cleans up easily after wards

DON'T USE GASOLINE!!! One stray spark, and you will have serious burns, a house fire, or worse.
Try reading the can to see what it recommends. If nothing else, let it dry, and let it wear off. That's better than risking severe injury or death.
