veg oil as hand cleansner

Try rubbing cheap veg oil over your greasy hands then wash with regular dish soap. this works as well as that orange cleaner, but it is more pleasant to use. It dosn't stink and is gentle on your hands.

Yes this is the principle of Murphy's Oil Soap. However, I have yet to find anything that works as good as the orange pumice stuff in the can (gojo??)

I like the "Fast Orange" stuff by Permatex.

My mother taught me to remove grease with butter. I think the orange cleaner is cheaper.
