How do I get rid of the smell of gasoline from my hands?


Question:
I got some gasoline on my hands and I've tried washing them and taking a shower but the smell wont go away

Answers:
Rub a half a lemon into your hands.

Be sure to use a heavy moisturizer after that.
Try tomatoe juice... it works for other odors so it should for gas as well!
Here are a several things that work:

1. Lava Soap
2. Cold coffee
3. Rubbing alcohol - Pour a little alcohol into your hand, add a bunch of scented liquid soap and rub, keep adding soap (it will not lather). After you have scrubbed your hands for a minute or so with this mixture, rinse with warm water, then use soap and water again.
Baking soda.

Wet your hands, rub a good bit of baking soda on them. Rub it in good. rinse it off. You may have to repeat.

It's the best thing I have found. I have tried it and it works.

Also for getting grease off your hands after working on
greasy cars cheap shampoo works great. And leaves your hands smelling much better than gasoline.
