Every time I change rubbers on a machine, that horrible rubber smell is on my hands for hours. Drives me nuts.
What is the secret to washing that smell off?! Soap doesn't get rid of it. Gojo kind of helps. What else to try?

Try not to smell them? Just kidding. I would try ketchup. It works for removing onion smell when I cut them up for my burgers.
I'm surprised I'm the only person annoyed by that smell! I can smell it even if my hands aren't anywhere near my face.
Quoted from Deez:Rub your hands in gasoline.
I'm really going to try this. After I try alcohol. Nitrile gloves are a good idea too.
Quoted from epthegeek:The solution you need is: switch to all Titan Silicone
I have a bunch of Bally's, so lots of rubber post caps. I was surprised to see Super-Bands makes poly post caps.

But... at $1.19 a piece that would literally cost more than I paid for some of the machines themselves.
