How to Remove Iodine Smell from Hands?

[Pengwuino]

Does anyone know how i can get this dang iodine solution smell off my hands. Stupid chemistry!

If you got iodine on your hands, that smell is probably oxidized flesh. It won't go away.

So I have to chop my hands off?

Well you got to do what you got to do...

Scented hand lotion? A long shower? Hang out with me, I won't smell it to make fun of you because I'm around betadine surgical scrub all day long (and smell like iodine too...is it any wonder I'm still single )?

How about rubbing some dog doo on your hands. That will get rid of the iodine smell.

Too late, i already cut my flipper off.

Thiosulfate --- mild reducing agent.

Lemon juice works really good, incase you grow your flipper back.

Hydochloric acid works good for iodine. 67% works best at neutralizing the smell.

I'll take the lemon juice since I don't believe we have any hydrochloric acid in our kitchen :P

Come on...do the dog doo.
