didn't have enough sense not to get the stinky gear lube all over me. My Mom threw my cloths away and made me take a bath in the back yard with the garden hose and Dawn Dishwashing liquid!
gear oil is my kryptonite. burnt up 40yr old junk with the limited slip additive makes me actively gag.
i have burned more pairs of dickies and thrown away more shoes than i care to admit.
also, never, ever send it thru the wash. even pre-treated it'll make everything give a faint waft of gear oil reek. say if you do, and say some of your ol' lady's stuff winds up in there with your stuff, well, then that's on you!
