Once in awhile I take my tools to the high speed wire brush to clean the PL off of them.... that works........ on everything but the plastic tools.

That would take the plastic off the PL

Once it's dry, I tend to think PL will protect your clothes, so best to leave it on there.

... If the PL is wet, try dousing it with vegitable cooking oil. Early in the thread, I saw recs for using had lotion. By trial and error I have found that hand lotion and vegitable oil work pretty well for removing wet PL from hands, skin, hair...haven't tried it with clothes, but who knows? Use it like soap, and when you think the PL is gone, then and only then use soap. My students no longer think I have a wierd case of psoriasis on my hands.

I've used Acetone to get PL off of clothes but you have to do it while it is still moist and the clothes better have a good dye in them. It also kinda works on the hands but I don't like putting chemicals like that on my skin if I can avoid it.
