DEB SOR400MP Swarfega Hand Cleaner Pump, 450ml, Orange

Reason for purchase and experienceI work a lot on my motorbike and bicycle. That means I always end up having grease and dirt all over my hands and under my nails. I tried using fairy liquid and a sponge but it never does the job and I end up spending 10 minutes just struggling to get rid of the grease and dirt. It's an essential purchase for those who have dirty or greasy hands. It has small beads in the cleaner that rubs off the grease and dirt from your hands. The scent is nice and overall I am pleased.Pros1) Cleans dirt and grease effortlessly and quickly2) Smells nice3) Hands feel good afterCons1) Would have preferred it to be bigger for the price

Pleased.

After an eternity of waiting to get my car back from a repair shop, I was absolutely itching to get under its bonnet and service it. Oil levels? Check. Air filter? Check. Brakes? Check, check, check and check. You get the idea. After a while tinkering, unscrewing, screwing and happily playing around in the dirt and grime of an engine that's done almost 100k miles in its lifetime, I went to wash my hands. Unfortunately, I only had fairy liquid and some flowery branded hand-soap to go for at the time. The fairy was useless. Whilst it might be good for cleaning up dirty dishes and cooking oil, engine grease and grime laughs in its face. The other hand-soap was OK, but it took FOREVER to get it all off.After a bit of searching for the orange hand soap my fellow mechanical tinkerers use, I FINALLY came across Swarfega, a garage classic and ordered one. It cuts through grease and grime like you might wash your hands after eating a particularly messy kebab. It contains granules to help scrub out the toughest of materials embedded in your skin and leaves them feeling pretty fresh indeed. I don't know whether these are the same plastic micro-beads that are destroying our oceans and waterways, but I can certainly vouch for their effectiveness in cleaning just about anything you could encounter when working on a vehicle.Good points- Highly effective against most vehicle lubricants, grease, grime and anything else that gets your hands dirty.- Easy to use.- Smells just-the-right-amount-of-manliness to keep most guys happy, and appease their partner(s) that they have sufficiently washed their hands.- Gives a very satisfying scrub.- Easily identifiable in the kitchen.Not-so-good points- If you keep it in the kitchen, make sure your partner approves first!- Does take a little longer with stubborn stains and particularly thick grease, but your hands still feel pretty good afterwards, unlike tougher solvents that dry your skin out.OverallIf you work with anything mechanical and get yourself dirty, you need a bottle of Swarfega Orange.

Absolutely blown away by how good this is, removes pretty much everything instantly with very little effort, it’s expensive but absolutely worth it

My brother is a mechanic and LOVES this product. They have it in their workplace but few and far between. It really works with oil/grease, dirt, etc. off of hands and arms/face/etc.100% recommend!

Gets your hands clean after those dirty greasy jobs.

This is the best thing for cleaning dirty hands. The scent is pleasant and the gritty bits really work on the dirt/ grease. Brilliant.

I don't think this is quite as abrasive as our old tub of yellow swarfega which lasted for years but it does the job with the help of a nail brush after gardening or painting. I like the smaller container and the pump action.
