The EPA warns that prolonged contact with used engine oil may cause a number of skin disorders, including
cancer! You should make every effort to minimize your exposure to used engine oil. Protective gloves should
be worn when changing the oil. Wash your hands and any other exposed skin areas as soon as possible after
exposure to used engine oil. Soap and water, or waterless hand cleaner should be used.
