Orange stuff from AutoZone or Advance Auto Parts I think. It has some griity stuff in it and leaves the hands smelling like citrus. Great stuff, I keep it in my boat. Another option is the body soap for hunters----- Scent Away.
Are you talking about the GoJo auto hand soap? Never thought about that stuff.
I have used Lava soap in the past with good results.
GOJO Orange with Pumice gets off grease and fishy smell great.
I can't remember the name right off, but it's in an orange container. Maybe someone else will pipe in.Quote:

It works. Try it.
And no, the sink won't smell like fish, either.

rubbing your hands on the stainless sink faucet, will remove the smell of onions. but I've never tried it for fish smell.:)
I use the Wonder Bar and it does work. Same basic theory of the stainless steel sink but in a soap bar form. Works good for me.
I like to use toothpaste.
gojo use it after handling catfish also
Ivory dishwashing liquid. The original kind..
I make some homemade non-scented odor spray for deer hunting,also will take the fish scent off.

I use this stuff called "blue gel" smells like citrus and contains pumice. Almost the same as the other orange stuff mentioned.
I luv the smell and don't want to get rid of it. Makes me want to go back for more. We need to bottle the stuff and sell it and make a profit. Chicks dig the smell or at least I tease my wife that she better because it is going to be with me until the day I die.
What I find that works well is something that you can find in your
kitchen if you don't have a lava bar or anything else with grit in the liquid:
1. Pour ample amount of dishwashing liquid in one hand.
2. Shake about a tsp of salt on top of the soap.
3. rub hands with mixture
It works for me, try it.
You can get rid of fish odors on your hands, in your clothes, or even in your boat and car easily with PureAyre products. PureAyre is a powerful odor eliminator that is food-grade safe so you can use it on your hands. I use it to get rid of cigar smoke on my hands after smoking. Just spray onto your hands and wash with soap and water. Great stuff. [url=http://www.ThePureAyreStore.com]
salt and lemon extract in palm of hand. works great
luck
After you wash your hands really good, pour a little bit of vanilla flavoring onto your hands snd rub it in, it smells like cake for a few minuits and then all odor is gone, it will work for about anything!!
