Here's a couple of new hand cleaners.
,
Coconut and lemon lime scents! I saw these at Autozone.
I haven't tried them, but the scents can make washing your dirty hands a little more interesting.

has anyone else tried the zolex-handcleaner.com sample?

I just got mine and it seems to work very well and before I splurge for a full tub I wanted to see if others have tried it.

I like the "Scrubs" in a bucket. They are towels so you can scrub your hands, and no rinse.

Are they petroleum based? My big problem with all the 'orange' cleaners and other solvent based goop is that it dries out my skin and causes my nails to crack...not to mention the smell that my wife hates.

I used the sample i ordered about 5-6 times and it cleaned perfectly without the petroleum smell but I have no idea if it will cause the same issues (they say they don't).

I guess $12 bucks isn't too much of a risk for 1 1/2 lbs.

I don't know, but they do smell fruity.

I thought I posted in this thread. My brother works for Castle Products. They make the best glass cleaner I ever used (way before he got there) and their handcleaners are great too. There is a smooth and a gritty type liquid soap.http://www.castlepackspower.com/index.cfm?
Made in Rochester, NY; which is good to support a small local business.

Also, I'm extremely sensitive to dyes. Cheap clothes, socks, soaps, lotions and even shampoos and hair care products. I break out it a (local) red rash.
I used to use cheap shampoo for oily hair; breaks through grease and doesn't dry out my hands. And its usually pretty cheap. Theres no grit, but I use a nail brush or vegetable brush (any soft bristled brush) and it takes the crud off easy. Im also sensitive to latex, so I have to use nitrile or a cream made to guard against 'contact dermatitis'; something like 'invisible glove'.
I even use this when I paint stuff. I wear the flex gloves, with the invisible glove stuff from the heel of my palm to about a third the way up my forearm, and my neck/collar area.

Ask your dentist for some old dental picks (after they've been sanitized) and a box of nitrile gloves. Mine usually gives em to me.

The OEM brand of hand cleaner sold at Autozone is manufactured by the same company makes the Snap On branded product. Great stuff, US company.
