How do i remove construction glue from hand?

Question

i work with flooring glue all day ~ is there anything that will remove it from my hands?

Answer 1

It really depends on what the glue is made of.

There are several kinds of adhesive removers, but I'd first try acetone.  You may need another type of product such as Goo-Gone, Goof Off, Goop hand cleaner, citrus-based solvent.  

Maybe next time it would come off easier if you apply some skin cream or lotion before the work.  Rub it in well, and it should help make cleanup easier.  How about gloves?  

Remember to use some good lotion or cream after you get the crud off, so your hands don't feel like leather.

You may also get the sticky stuff off with peanut butter.

Don't laugh too hard, this really will cut through some types of adhesive due to the oil in it.

Answer 2

rub your hands together and it will peel its self off!!!!

Answer 3

Fingernail polish remover.

Answer 4

yea, you!  peal and rub it off, scratch it off with your finger nails ,during a hot shower, scratch some more,, in a couple of days your skin will regenerate and the rest will come off.

If you want to go the chemical route... lacquer thinner or gasoline will work, both are really hard on your hands though.
