We all have had gas,90w oil,diesel,ect get on your shands and skin and seems no amount of cleaner will remove the odor. Try spraying WD40 on and work it in for a minute or two then use a good hand cleaner. Works great for me and i work on heavy equipment and diesels for a living. Let me know if it works for you ! (my other favorite use of WD40 is for walleye and perch fishing, been using it for 20 yrs)
Thanks for the tip!!! I will try that next time the wife tells me I smell bad after working on a car project.
Whenever I work with 80W90, especially if it has limited slip additive in it, I wear the oldest, crappiest clothes I have (I have lots of old crappy cloths), and throw them out when done with the project.
I just don't wear clothes when working on my rearend.

Is that with or without using WD-40?
Geeez i think we all have couped up inside toooo long ! hey it's up to 8 already yeee haaa
Snap-On brand pumice hand cleaner is the cats ass.I used it at a friends house after an afternoon of quad wrenching.I had him get me the kit from the Snap-On rep. who comes into his work.($30.00,with dispenser)You will never use anything else after trying it.
Plain ol rubbing alcohol works for me. I just soak my hands in it. Oh and a good moisturizing saop afterwards....
a teaspoon of sugar and some dish soap work really well. i use that combo in a pinch
