Having determined that there is no way to transfer gas from a modern gas can into my car, I now have the issue of smelling like gasoline all day long. Hand soap does nothing to remove the smell, any other suggestions that I might find at the office? Coffee grounds? Urine? Windex?
(I won't fall for the urine suggestion BTW)
Lemon juice removes staining that mahogany leaves on your skin. Sorry that's all I got.
its sortof a which would you rather smell like, but fast orange always works for me, but then i smell like fake orange for a while.
Toothpaste & some liquid soap (may have it wash, rinse, repeat...) but it is very effective.
I like bleach for that.
I like to think of it as cologne - it goes with the ground-in dirt under my fingernails and on my hands.
Pride in my work. 
I can only offer this... it could be diesel instead of gas

I spilled two drops of diesel on a pair of shoes once. After an hour of driving I was ready to throw up and I threw the shoes away.
I have often thought that somebody should make a manly cologne that smells like race gas.
Gas is bad, but ts carb cleaner that gets me. I bought a different brand of spray from what we normally use (which is bad enough) and I threw most of it away. The normal stuff goes away with enough soap and water, but this stuff permeates the skin- and I tend to sleep with my hands close to my face.
You guys are a bunch of Bob Costas. I hit a skunk on my motorcycle once.
My mother would rub celery salt on her hands after cutting up onions in the kitchen to get rid of the smell. One day I thought of that when trying to wash the smell of gasoline off my hands, so I tried it and it actually works pretty well - get your hands wet and soapy, then shake a bunch of celery salt in one palm and scrub it around for a while.

My uncle tells a funny story of hitting a skunk on a motorcycle.. the rear wheel kicked it up and it landed on the tank right in front of him.
A couple of miles down the road he can't smell it anymore... so, being thirsty, he pulls into a bar... and damn near cleared it out when he walked in the door
