Keep paint on your project, not on your hands – painting gloves
I don’t enjoy using oil based paints but sometimes it’s what the job calls for. It’s hard to clean up and you have to use chemicals. If you get it on your skin you either let it wear off or use chemicals or super abrasive soaps to clean it off. I swear I can taste it when I wash my hands with paint thinner and you might as well use sandpaper as abrasive soaps. I’ll take the easy road please! 
I keep a box of disposable gloves in my shop. I wear a pair when painting with oil based primer or paint. Throw them away when I’m done.
I’ve never tried them but there are biodegradable gloves that you can compost. I read some reviews that said they ripped too easily but they are an option if that seems like something you would want to use.
We all have to make our own choices about conservation and environmentally friendly products and uses.
Darn it! I’m having my developer look into this. Hopefully it gets resolved asap! Thanks for letting me know.
Hi!
Love your site and have been following some time now, but lately I have been having a problem reading the actual post. It starts to download normally, then all pictures and type becomes very pixilated, making it impossible to read. Your header, comments and ads all show up clearly though. Is anyone else having this problem? I probably noticed this a week or so ago. I am reading from an iPad, but never had this problem in the past.
Thanks!

I’ve tried massaging in olive oil into my hands after I’ve gotten a bit too messy and it helps to remove the oil paint without damaging your skin 🙂
