Vegetable oil is good for breaking down grease & oil paint. Then wash with soap. Keeps the nasty petroleum products off your skin.

Happens quite often actually, what's more fun is that my mom thought I did that WHILE riding so she got scared I could cut myself quite badly, until I told her how it happens in reality.

what kind of lube are you guys using??? whenever I get grease on my leg it comes off with ordinary soap. even plain water and a rag works.

It happens to me when I am stopped and I either lean myself or my bike in such a way that the chain or the chain ring touches my calf.

Naptha, WD-40, denatured alcohol will work. I typically just use mechanics hand cleaner -- I think it's called Fast Orange. I get it from Auto Zone. I wipe my chain after each ride, which sometimes gets hands greasy. Easy to clean up any leg marks while washing the hands.
