Thx to all for the helpful suggestions. I kicked myself as soon as I hit the "send" button on my original message because obviously the kerosene heater reference was only going to make a big "bang".

"Skin" and a good citrus based hand cleaner work well for me. Added benefit is that not wearing gloves makes you more respectful of the metal bits you're working on - we're not putting out oil fires
