Soap!

[Dansedgli]

I know a lot of you dont know what this is but I need some advice

What soap do you use to get grease and other automotive fun off your hands?

I have silastic residue on my hands and I cant get rid of it. I tried the usual "lightning" soap from repco in an orange flavour and metholated spirits and turpentine but the black marks wont budge.

Im an accountant during the week so its not a good look. :S

[Schmee]

Solvol will help get rid of most things

[Dansedgli]

Thanks Schmee Ill get some at lunch time and give it a go.

[EFFalcon]

washing machine powder
prolly bad for ya hands but meh.

[Dansedgli]

I tried washing machine powder. It didnt work either.

[EFFalcon]

did it have a 'power' ball
or is that dishwasher stuff...


haha, yeh solvol is generally good for anything.

i'd like to know what gets fibreglass off :/

[galapogos01]

i fucking hate that silastic stain. it gets under your nails and shit, its a PITA!

a nail brush and a decent scrub i reckon.. nothing else seems to get it off.

Not if you follow it with fabric softner!!

If the orange grit doesn't work then use solvol. as previously said.

[Gozza]

Try some of that Amourall Multi Purpose Cleaner Spray - But Solvol is usually the shit

[turbodrift]

Fast orange is good stuff and generally easy to get or there is cleaner called SOLOPOL and it will remove everything but a little hard to get hold of.

[Frost]

Metholated Sprits then normal soap.

[LTDHO]

Metholated Sprits then normal soap.

Metho works well with orange juice too, not for washing either!!

[Gunns]

Wash your hands with Kerosine, then just us normal hand soap. Works for me.

[t1MMy]

Try panther piss. Works for Ron Burgandy.

[Sunboost]

As soon as I finished using silastic I put degreaser and kero on my hands and used a steel scourer softly.

I hate manky arse stains on my hands and nails make you look like a grubby low kunt.

Thought this was gonna be a Fight Club thread of some sort.
Use Solvol. Stuff like turpentine and methylated spirits will just fvck your skin (then you rub your eyes, bite your nails, jerk off and you're up the creek)..

[BLCKED]

solvol for sure,

or i prefer orange hand cleaner

[MY92ED]

Coles Earth choice Floor Cleaner with Eucalyptus. Works a treat.....although if you have any cuts it stings like ****

[4LEDboy]

Dirt!

Wet yor hands then cover them in dirt and scrub!

[braiden]

Petrol.

[LUXO_8]

i have in the past had to use petrol or prepsol, both will remove silastic / paint easily but you have to wash up well with regular soap after

[sphell]

yeh petrol will get everything off then you need to use something like Lightning orange to get the petrol off. John, nothing gets dried fibreglass resin off, it just wears off with time. Acetone will get it off if it's still wet though.

[Nikk O'lass]

i'd like to know what gets fibreglass off :/

Acetone! Even when its dying, use acetone and a pumice stone...works good.

Or just sand it off

[Kenaz]

Thinners.. Prepsol isn't too bad either.

[old_mate]

MEK.

We use to use these wipes at Qantas called black box. Those things were the shit

[OED666]

Rollin swears by the cheap shit Country Life.. its not too bad actually. also multi-purpose cleaner is good, but farken expensive hand cleaner.

[donno]

Normal dishwashing liquid detergent! Works brilliantly.

[67rce]

My Old man swears by Sard Wondersoaker.... how about ProtectaPink

[ned]

This is gonna sound weird... Aeroguard Tropical strength.

And I was hoping for a fight club thread as well.
