grubby hand cleanser?

[fizzy]

Comma Manista, the polyester beads are banned now and other natural abrasives are used. Fast Orange is another popular cleaner.

The old Manista was the best I ever used - the lemon scented one.
Too tight to buy anything now - and I get allergic reactions to oils - I think caused by soluble cutting fluid - so I always wear disposable gloves.
When stuck I use fairy liquid and sugar.

Hate the green Swarfega, could even taste it after washing my hands, went over to Manista, that’s good. Now using orange Swarfega, buy it in a 5 litre can with a pump from Costco, that’s good as well, but cheaper than Manista. If you have a Costco card, or know someone that can get it for you, it‘s about half the price of anywhere else.

Edit, I think the orange Swarfega has some sort of grain bits so it degrades now.

hmm a bit personal there

Depends what it is you want to clean off.
If don't like gloves and want to remove oil and grease, a cloth with a squirt wd40 gets the worst off before hand cleaner.
Washing powder is good but only for special occasions

best off using rosalex barrier cream 1st doing mucky stuff. it stops your pores getting ingrained and washes off easily

Cheap bottles of "baby lotion" and rags.

Not as Covid secure as hot water/soap and rinsing for hours - but baby lotion will bring them up clean.

(So will eating fish and chips with dirty hands sadly) .


I been washing my hands so much of late - bought into the handwashing pathogen idea in a big way.

I been buying tubs of O'Keeffes handcream - biggest 193g tubs I can get!

Orange Swarfega for me. Keep a pump bottle under the sink.
