How to remove mineral oil?

warm water and dish soap should do it, may need to rinse and repeat 2-3 times.

that aside, I usually use (SCOTTS) paper towels for this type of finish so that I don’t end up with soaked rags that I would need to clean – just keep them soaked in a plastic baggie for reuse with mineral oil and if they ever get overused, toss and use a new one (you’d be surprised how long one will last though…)

Fire works well.

My trick to oil boards is not to do any work myself. I buy enough mineral oil to “float” the wood in a poly bag with the air sucked out and it sits there for a few weeks till it’s all absorbed. Every once in a while I rotate it.

I’m not trying to be rude or anything- but think of how much the water and the soap would cost compared to just cutting up another old t-shirt for more rags. I know where I come from I’m always stocked with new t-shirts from vendors, charity races, company events, and school stuff. Because of this- I never think twice about throwing out a rag after using it with mineral oil or danish oil- That is, after I have hung it out to dry for a few days. -
