My husband is a stone mason and gets concrete mix and dust on his skin, mainly arms and legs. How do you get that off? We have heard of using vinegar-rubbing on skin before showering. Does anyone know if it really works?

vinegar sounds logical. cement is mostly ground limestone. limestone is a lot of calcium. calcium is alkaline. the vinegar would pretty much react to limestone the way it does to baking soda, on a much smaller scale. sounds like it would bust it up and make it easier to wash off.
