how do you get get concrete stain off your fingers?

Question

I recently stained a concrete floor for the first time with a friend. However, I didn't use any gloves during the process. At any rate, I have a little bit of stain on my hands, and feet. How do I get this off? Soap just aint cutting it.

Answer 1

Lava Soap is sold in bars and can be found with other hand soaps in the grocery store or supermarket, works very well, as it contains pumice or a fine grit, which really digs into the skin and removes very stubborn stains. Mechanics use Lava soap to remove stubborn grease and oil stains from their hands, as do gardeners for plant stains and deeply embedded dirt stains. May have to wash your hands more than once...another thing you might try...Goo Gone, it is a household cleaner, smells like oranges, and works very well at removing unusual stains. But do try the Lava Soap bar first, and for getting under your fingernails...scratch the bar of soap and get the soap under the nails, use any good scrub brush, or an old toothbrush to get under the nails and clear out the grime. May have to do this a few times to get all the stain out of your hands and feet.

Answer 2

Try a soap made for removing work stains like Boraxo. It has grit and solvents in it and will get the stain off. Use hand lotion afterwards to keep your skin from drying out and getting rough.

Answer 3

Vinegar
