Default First rear wheel removal-anti-seize

Had the joy of learning how to remove the rear wheel for a new tire (incredibly easy). Anyone know the best way to get anti-seize off yer hands, clothes, new tire, dog, door ****, driveway? Just kidding, but that's some nasty stuff! Yeah, I'm bored this morning.

I learned long ago to put on a pair of rubber golves (you can get some used ones from any proctologist for a couple pennies) when I am going to mess with the anti-seize.

Since when did MoCo start using anti-seize on the axles again? Lord knows they didn't assemble the bikes with anti-seize or Loc-tite back when they assembled mine in 2000.

Fast Orange works well for me.

Or wear nitrile gloves for jobs like this.
