your hand cleaner of choice

[b*saint]

fast orange

Maybe you have a different mix but this is one of those that def DOESNT work on my hands.

I use TKO at work, but Worx is the SHIT! I love it so much, when I found the Matco guy sold it, I bought a bottle to keep in my car for when I'm not at work.

Supersoap Mechanics hand soap is by far the BEST hand cleaner ever.

Same. I started wearing nitrile gloves a couple of years ago anytime I work on my car, and the only thing I have to wash off my hands anymore is stinky-inside-glove sweat. If it's something really hardcore, Mechanix gloves.

I wear the nitrile gloves as well but depending on what I'm doing sometimes they get cut or I've got grease up to my elbows. I use fast orange or dawn with a good stiff brush.

My favorites: Zep TKO, Zep Cherry bomb, Tarkelp, Stoko Kresto

All work very well. Btw, I hate any orange ones...

I wear gloves, but they break way to easily and frequently. Sometimes I just give up and take em off.

yep! ^ i always wear gloves, but when you don't work at a shop (so you have a ready free supply) sometime you don't want to burn through 1/2 a box of gloves to finish a job. the other really nice thing about WORX is you don't have to use much at all to get the job done.

BTW you can order it direct from the manufacture and save a little over getting it from MATCO.

I work at a dealer and get gloves for free and I don't even like using them. They catch everything and tear and they just don't feel as good as not wearing any. It's kinda like underwear....minus the part about them always breaking.

yea , i miss having a job...i usually am at a dealer and the perks that come with it ( although i don't miss the politics). dam the economy automotive jobs are still in the dumper for high end autos :(

My buddy that works at the Red Cross occasionally drops by my house after work and replenishes my supply.

Nitrile gloves break often. They must be made by durex.....

In my experience, cherry bomb works really well (haven't tried any others mention other than fast orange, which is crap), although I worked on class 8 trucks and if you want the definition of dirty try a clutch job on one of those suckers. Dirt, grease and soot everywhere.
