Denatured ethanol, a gallon costs about $12 at any store that sells paint, is an excellent solvent for propolis.  It works well for cleaning tools, clothes and your hands.  Just wet a paper towel and scrub until the propolis dissolves and is gone.  Methanol or isopropyl alcohol also work at higher cost.  If you work without gloves like I do it sure is nice to clean your hands before you grab the steering wheel and gum it up forever.
