A household hint: "Goop" is a hand-cleaner that I highly recommend. Unlike "Lava" and similar products, it does not scrape the dirt off (along with skin). It is particularly useful after working on your car. It also works as a spot remover. I find it at my local grocery store. (I have no relationship with whatever company makes "Goop".) steve roush attis - denver druxw!csr 303-538-4860

It's the only way to get your fingernails cleaning after changing the oil and things like that. Cheap, too.

It has a skin softener in it, so your hands don't dry up and wither away (as gasoline makes them do.) I found some at an industrial supply house in Denver, one can find a local distributer by calling the manufacturer. It was well worth the effort to find. It is also effective in removing paint from your hands (much better than turpentine), and removing stains from clothes. I also have no relationship with Vibraclean, although I do let it caress my hands on a regular basis. Margaret Brown Burroughs DSG, Boulder Colo ...bmcg!asgb!margaret
