Do not clean oil off the skin (except round the mouth and eyes) until the person is warm and comfortable. Survivors who have recovered from hypothermia can taken to a warm shower or bathroom and should have all their clothes taken off. Then their skin should be wiped with soft cloth and strong paper towels to remove as much of the oil as possible. Injured or burned areas should be wiped with care or not at all. Next, if a strong warm shower is available, it can be used to remove much of the oil. Hair-shampoo will remove oil from the hair and can be used to help remove oil from the body. Then, with time, patience, help, and wiping, and using good toilet soap to clean the skin, the rest of the oil can be washed away. Solvents, scouring compounds, kerosene, and other cleaners not designed for skin cleaning must not be used. It is, however, permissible to use jellied cleansing agents designed for the purpose. But the main cleaning-up is best accomplished by being patient and gentle, by mechanical removal of the oil by wiping and by a strong shower, and by using hair-shampoo and toilet soap.
