What mechainc brings their tools out of the shop and into the bathroom with them? Maybe the crescent wrench was used in the bathroom to fix a dripping fixture or something.
I’ve also definitely gotten nearly that dirty before. If i don’t degrime an engine before working on it, all that thick black built up grime will eventually end up on my hands and forearms. As i scratch myself or wipe sweat the grime slowly covers most of my body. I also often have to lay on the dirty shop floor or driveways which can also contribute to getting filthy.
Oh yeah for sure. I’m just a home gamer and I can’t stand jumpsuits, so any axle grease or bearing grease turns me into a spec ops camouflage expert.
I’ll re-shill tub-o-towels here. Seriously fucking awesome for getting the even most sticky grime off your hands before you touch any doorknobs (or to clean your hands when there’s no faucet around).
You never had the absolute bliss of discovering your missing 10mm in your pocket once you got home?
Just degrease what you’re working on and wear long sleeve uniforms. I do both when I can, but I always wear long sleeves. Helps prevent some cuts and burns too. If you know you’re going to be on the floor, get a creeper, they’re relatively inexpensive and have the upside of making it significantly easier to skate around on the floor. Plus you pretty much don’t get dirty.
I don’t mind getting dirty, but if I can, its easier to take the like 5 minutes or less of prep to prevent getting myself dirty in the first place. This way I don’t get customer interiors dirty, leave grease prints everywhere, and make it easier to clean my shop uniforms when they’re dirty.

It was in her pocket, and she forgot about it
