How to get finishing epoxy off my hands???

Question

its Z-poxy brand

Answer 1

I would try baby oil, make sure you use a lot and rub it in till it gets real warm. I know it works well getting paint or stain from my hands.. Good luck.

Answer 2

acetone or nail polish remover with acetone will remove it.

Answer 3

I think alcohol (denatured) might work.  You can also drink some non-denatured alcohol; it might brighten your mood.

I hate sticky hands too.  Worst case, I rub sawdust on them, then dry wipe on a towel.  It gets rid of the sticky.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Try going on Ask.com and ask what removes finishng epoxy, or maybe Z-poxy has a website. When all else fails use baby powder or baking soda, and rub.

Answer 6

You can clean up your brush with Lacquer thinner.  Maybe use a little on your hands but it could burn your skin so don't use much if at all.  Might be safer to just let it ware off.

Answer 7

if you can't get it off with soap and a scrubber, I would honestly try a metal fingernail file. I had super glue on my finger once and you can use a fingernail file to get it off and it even takes off the dead skin without being overly abrasive. Good luck. If that doesn't help, does the epoxy have any tips to get it off on the box or tube (whatever it came in)?

Answer 8

Lava soap and the orange smelling stuff.  Then a careful use of a razor or knife. My preference wait for it to really dry then use toe nail clippers.  Get use to it if you're using epoxy the discomfort of the residue is part of the job.

Answer 9

There are many ways, one is simply soap, that is a big weakness to epoxy.

Answer 10

you know to be honest I just let the friction of time and wear, showers, and handling things to let c**p come off my skin on the hands. People get all freaked out about a stain and mine goes away in two days!

Answer 11

use some nail polish remover....put it on a Cotton ball and dab...it should come right off
