- Prolonged and repeated contact of mineral oil with the skin will deplete the skin's natural fats, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.
- Wear protective clothing and gloves to minimize the length and frequency of contact between the skin and used oil. If contact does occur, wash your skin thoroughly with soap and water or waterless hand cleaner. Do not use gasoline, thinners or solvents to wash the skin.
