I have been using spray adhesive for some different crafts lately. I have noticed once it gets on your hands, it is stuck quite well. You can't use rubber gloves, because all you'd do is stick to your project.
Last week, I had been working on a project using spray adhesive. When I went to scrub my hands I couldn't get it off. I used Dawn dish detergent and a scrubby pad, but I still had quite a bit of residue. I found a bottle of lotion and liberally added it to my hands and rubbed it in for about a minute. I washed and rinsed my hands and the residue was gone. Finding this little remedy after battling to get it off made my project much more enjoyable.

Use a manageable amount of petroleum jelly to massage into your hands before using then wipe off the excess. Makes glue and paint on your hands much easier to clean off.
Mineral Turpentine gets it straight off without much rubbing
MINERAL OIL. Dissolves it immediately.
A true pro-tip! I had loads of adhesive on my wrist and wondered if my little Tisserand Sweet Dreams roller would work and it did!
OMG, thank you so much. I am helping my daughter with another school project and the spray adhesive wouldn't come off no matter how painfully raw I scrubbed my hands. No word of a lie, I used baking soda, SOS pads, Dawn, Makeup Remover.
Goo B Gone is amazing! I just had that happen last night and tried everything then read goo b gone and it's all gone! Yay!
That method didn't work for me. I looked around the house and found some Bissel boost with Oxy.. you add to your carpet cleaner.
Worked great! Just rubbed my fingers together under running water, as it turned itself into little balls of non sticky goo.
I suggest using vegetable oil because thats why i used on my kids hand because he was......lets just........nosy
Olive oil works too
THANK YOU!!!! Now I can continue my day without sticking to everything!!
Butter!!! Rub room temperature butter all over your hands and the adhesive comes off perfectly. I now enjoy spray adhesive again!
so the pertainate question is what kind of lotion did you use
Thanks -- this worked! I will be more careful next time :)
