will roll on do the trick? got no spray stuff!!!
No, try any other body sprays you might have. Some furniture polish may also work, but no guarentee on what it might do to the skin.

Diesel is supposed to dissolve it, they use it in hospitals to remove molten bitumen from burns victimes ie after the Odsal stadium [bradford] fire a lot of victims were treated for bitumen burns as it had melted from the roof of the stand & burned several peoples scalps it was successfully treated using Diesel oil.

Dip a cloth in the Birds tank and use a bit of petrol then wash hands as normal

Try a bit of unleaded then if you have no diesel it can't hurt & I think most petroleum based products would work or you could try spraying WD40 onto it & see if that breaks it down I've used it many a time for getting oil off my hands when I've run out of swarfega
