How to clean hamilton oil from around bath??

[farmgirl77]

Ok, need help getting my bath clean! Due to DS's eczema, I have to use hamilton oil in his bath each night which is 95% light liquid paraffin. It leaves a really sticky and hard to shift residue on the tub which does not come off easily - especially with my slightly lax cleaning.

I generally just use hot water and pinoclean to do the bathrooms but this makes no impact on my bath and surrounding tiles . Any suggestions on how to shift this???

Thanks

oil dissoves oil - try eucalyptus. It removes most things, and its not thick like other oils.

Ditto what Pandora said - try eucalyptus oil.

Other option is to maybe try dish-washing liquid (well it works on oily dishes?)

I bathed DD1 in hamiltons oil for years and I found the best thing for the grimey bath ring was dishwashing liquid. If it's really built up sprinkle some bicarb on as well to help scrub it off - but after that the dishwashing liquid by itself will do the trick easily.
