Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner For Mechanics, Natural Pumice, 8 Oz

First off. I'm female. I'm the only female working in maintenance in a molten metal plant. I'm covered in caked on dirt and grease daily and especially it's under my short nails. So, for any ladies that may think differently about this product, here's my review. I was skeptical at first, especially cause I dunked my finger in it when I peeled of the protective cap and it wasn't as gritty as what I've always used, but gave it a go. Scent wise...it's pleasant but it doesn't make my hands smell like anything after it's washed off. The soap suds up and it didn't feel like I was tearing at my skin while scrubbing my hands with a nail brush. Once washed off, I'm pleasantly surprised that I don't have to go back over my hands again a second time and wash/scrub them. My knuckles, palms, around my nails are nice and clean. Under my nails, of course, are not perfectly clean but that will take another 2 days of no work and regularly washing my hands. My hands are completely dried off and don't feel extremely dry like they normally would with other heavy duty hand soaps. They feel a bit softer. I just still need to throw some lotion on due to just normal winter dryness and dryness from washing and scrubbing so much at work and afterwards. I only had to use about a nickle size drop of soap. So, all in all. 2 thumbs up. Will buy this product again and store in my locker at work.

Great level of grit. Works great for cleaning grimy hands. I'm surprised how much I like the lime scent.

Love it, works great!!

Helps clean up my hands after work.

I have been using SoJo pumice soap for years. I saw my grizzled hunter/fisherman/carpenter uncle use it on his insanely dirty hands (let’s be honest - his hands were fish scale covered, deer blood soaked, and grease monkey smeared - at the very least), and that stuff seemed magical. I liked that they eventually came out with a “cherry” version, too. But then I saw this...and I was intrigued that it was made with dirt to clean dirt. I love dirt...and paint and glue and everything else that shouldn’t be on my hands because, whereas “normal” people where gloves when they work, I hate them and just use my grubby little hands. At the end of the day, my phone’s thumb print recognition is useless. It might as well accuse me of being a spy that has acid burned my finger prints off - that’s how much crap I manage to destroy my skin with. I know my hands will probably either glow green or just fall off in a few years, at the ripe old age of 36. Anyhow, THIS stuff IS magical. This stuff gets EVERYTHING off, without scrubbing. It gets surprisingly soapy. It leaves your hands as soft as a freshly bloomed rose petal (I don’t have babies and can’t speak to their butts, but if that’s how you want to think of it - by all means). I just ordered a gallon of it. A GALLON of it. If you are questioning the efficacy of this stuff, don’t. It’s worth every penny - heck, I’d send them a TIP for this stuff if I could. Seriously, I have the kind of hands that my dog doesn’t want a pet from by the end of the day. I have dirt under my nails so obnoxious I usually just cut my nails off to deal with it. PS if you put this stuff on a nail brush, it’s better than when they soak your fingers at a salon. I have the kind of hands that make little boys go “is that what my hands would look like if I didn’t wash them all the time like you tell me to, mom?!” But now, with this soap, I can continue to be that heinously dirty handed adult female who says, “Yep. Better stop pretending to wash your hands by turning on the faucet but never actually washing your hands after you use the bathroom, kid!” Because I know I can clean my hands to perfection with soap...and because lying to little kids is fun. Huzzah!

Got bike chain grease off my leg and hands no problem.

I’ve been a professional mechanic for 10 years and I’ve used a ton of different hand cleaners over that time. I’ve never had any issues until I recently developed eczema on my hands over the last year or so. I had to stop using fast orange and had to switch to original formula Gojo. The Gojo does not clean well, leaves a residue and smells terrible, but my eczema was better when using it. I knew there had to be something better out there, so when I saw Grip Clean I decided to give it a try. I can’t believe how well this stuff works. It cleans as good if not better than any other cleaner I’ve ever tried and rinses clean with no residue and smells great. This is the BEST hand cleaner I’ve ever used by a huge margin and I would give it 6 stars if I could!!! In addition to all of that, my hand eczema is gone after a couple weeks of using grip cleaner. This stuff is the real deal. I know this sounds like a bad infomercial, but I’m a real guy, running a small shop in Ogden Utah who is just excited to find something that actually works as advertised.

This was pretty good soap. It smelled good and worked great. However, it's expensive for what it is. You're better off just buying Fast Orange at Walmart or something. This is supposed to be made with dirt, which you can just go outside and get out of your backyard but yet they stick a lime scent in it and make it into soap and it costs this much?
