Removing Diesel Fuel Smell From Hands and Clothing

RE: Removing Diesel Fuel Smell From Hands and Clothing Post By shar (Guest Post) (07/24/2008) Simple green can be purchased at costco or sams club in large bottles. Does anyone know if this is safe for the skin? Also is fast orange irritating to the skin? My sons works on an oil rig and his feet, hands and fore arms are raw from the diesel fuel and oil he works in.

Guess I'll try the Fast Orange.

NO MORE DIESEL SMELL! Hope this helps someone else out. geez I hate that smell.

I have not used it in years and can not remember the name of it. Nor can I find anything in the stores to remove fuel smells. Can anyone remember anything like this?

I don't want to make my washing machine smell like diesel, but I really would like to help this guy out. I've heard vinegar and baking soda will work, but my husband says that will foam up. HELP!

It smells too, but cleans fast and dries fast and leaves no residue on your machine that could transfer to your other clothes. The only thing worse than stinky clothes from diesel is having all of your laundry smelling like deisel. My husband does that part for me b/c I can not handle the smell.

The smell is gone for the most part. We're satisfied with it!

He has a hand cleaner called Fast Orange. We got it at Wal-mart, they also carry it at auto parts stores. I put a little of that on his clothes and wash as usual. It gets the smell and the greasy feel out of the clothes. I would think it would work just as well for your hands. Good Luck! Report Spam or Abuse
