How do I get this varnish/polyurethane off my hands?

Question

I have no paint thinner and I got stuck with a varnish with polyurethane all over my hands. I have tried nail polish remover, orange pumice cleaner, dish soap, and a rough sponge. All helped a little but I still have a sticky residue on my hands. Is there anything else I can use?? Will paint thinner irritate my skin?

Answer 1

petrol gets every thing off

Answer 2

Use vegetable oil and then wash your hands with soap and water after wards. It really works and your hands will be nice and soft :)

Answer 3

it wont irritate ur skin just dont soak ur hands in it try wd40 it or if u have any mojo in an orange color  bottle works really good  

Answer 4

Vegetable oil works best it's a two step process after you remove the varnish. You then have to remove the vegetable oil from your hands which is easily done with dish soap.
