It's easy to clean wipe-on poly off your hands if you use some canola oil. I always forget to wear gloves- oops.

Sidebar: use vegetable oil also to clean sap from your skin.

One guy told me to run my hand through my hair. He even added "I swear I'm not fucking with you, I won't even watch you do it."

Can say it does work. Doesn't necessarily clean the pitch off your hands but it helps and makes it not sticky so you can go about your day.

I can see that. Probably our skin oils working the same way as the veg oil.
