    mechanics: what do you use to clean your hands?

    K I'm honestly sick and tired of having dirty hands for a week after working on cars. And even after I wash and scrub with multiple soaps for 30+ minutes my hands don't come all the way clean.

    My question is, what do you guys use to REALLY clean your hands thoroughly after getting them black with grease?

              "Kresto" soap (heavy duty) with crushed almonds, leaves your hands smelling good too.
              Ask the (the black guy=Kev) he uses it at home, although he may not be able to tell completely......

                  nitrile gloves... (now they got even cheaper with the white ones)
                  after im done working i can eat with my hands.


                  if im doing regular work (not oil, grease, fluids) i use nitrile coated cotton gloves i keep a pair of these in my car at all times...even use em when getting gas, cleaning windows, checking air pressure, fluid levels, they keep the shit on the gloves, and my interior clean.
                  also, keep a few in my truck, they're so cheap i buy at least 3 at a time...and use em till they get holes in em... plus, on really greasy work, they clean off easier and faster than skin and i get better grips out of tools...much less skinned knuckles..although istill get them

                              Keep these in the garage. They work good when you're in a hurry. They have blue plastic fibers in them that help scrub the dirt and grime off.


                              And this at the sink and in the shower. Pumic helps scrub, smells good, the the nail brush is handy as well.


                              Use this occasionally. Not as good as the others but definitely a step up from regular soap.
