    i tryed gasoline but once the bedliner dries, it doesn't do anything. about a month ago when i herculined my fender flares i got alot on my hands, and it took about 3 weeks to finally fade off

    i used my girlfriends pumice stone she had in the shower. just grinded that sh*t off my hands and forearms but it worked. left them feeling a little raw afterwards but no big deal. my skin had some sort of reaction to the herculiner too, just a little rash that cleared up in a few days.
