Can’t get the scent of gas off my hands with soap and water.

What’s a better way? Dig your hands into cat litter?

    For soaps, we use a supplier that’s local, can’t quite remember but I can find out. However that Mac soap is definitely the best I’ve used probably because of the walnut shell scrubbers vs pumice based soaps.

    I would stay far and away from that orange shit, for how rough and drying it is on the hands it doesn’t balance off how ineffective it is. Pumice is also too rough on the skin.

    -Wear nitrile gloves -Moisturize your hands PLUS it helps even if you end up in the rare situation without gloves, the moisturizer acts as a small barrier of sorts and will stop you from absorbing as much -Wash up throughout the day, and use cooler water as it’ll keep the pores shut from absorbing shit while you wash up

    Your skin is your largest organ, try to minimize exposure to chemicals as much as you can and minimize absorption

      Did not know about the moisture bit. I’m thinking the oils or fats help stop the skin from soaking in as much of the fluids that are water-based.

      Thanks for the tips!
