Thad, that stuff is horrid!, my hands are always a disaster and crack all winter, then that stuff only sucks what little moisture there is out of my hands and drys them out more, along with finding ever little crack on them.

If i get grease / paint / tar on my hands while working, i take a gasoline rag and wipe them clean, then water and soap wash.. Gas does a GREAT job, but watch out for cuts !

Actually,,,I wish I could figure what it is that triggers the periodic bad skin cracking on the palm area,,as mine runs off and on,,,,? Right now,,it is almost gone and only gots a few stragglers that if it wasn't for them gettin hung up on anything I rub against,,it would not be that big an issue, I wear a back belt and I'm always catching the skin on the dang velcro and a PITA,,,!!

Guys I spent 13+ years owning a farm fuel business. The best thing I found was premium #2 diesel for curing cracked hands. The worst thing was gasohol. I bought alcohol 1800 gallons at a time and mixed it with regular gas. Get it on your hands and the cracks would be far worse the next day. Good thing I never smoked.
