    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

cleaning hands

orange/pumice type cleaner w/scrub brush.

now that your skin is rough & raw get some udder cream (Tractor Supply or other farmer's supply store. Wipe it on & let it soak in. Your hands will love it. Great stuff & fairly cheap.

Don't use too much or milk will drip from your fingertips :-)

Clean your wheels & hands at the same time.

Use the waterless hand cleaner, as recommended here a few times. The Fast Orange stuff works well. There are others. Get that goop and start working it in on your wheels with your fingers. Really get in all the tight spots. When you're done rinse it off. Wheels are nice & clean...hands, too.
 
I need some tips here. My hands are trashed :P Aside from the fact the constant (pointless) washing is making them very dry, cracked, and painful I can't seem to get them clean again.

I cant seem to get everything off and mechanic hands are not going to go well computer service calls :P

Thanks!
I have exactly the same problem, no one has mentioned vitamin E. When my hands get to the cracked and bleeding point, I apply vitamin E straight from a popped capsule to get things healed back up (works stunningly fast because vit E promotes cell growth). I used to just sit in the tub with a good dish soap soaking in and a toothbrush(has the finest bristles) but now I use BT200 a parts cleaner that is primarily carbon eating bacteria. Works like magic!
 
I like the Goop hand cleaner. The trick is not to use it with any water. After rubbing it all over and liquifying all the grease, wipe hands with dry paper towels. Then you can wash your hands as normal.
