Cherry Gel GoJo is my go to.
Picture this: After many hours–too many, probably–you finally finished that big thing on your project you’ve been chipping away at for weeks. Relieved it’s finally over, you put away your tools and head to the sink to clean up.
What product do you reach for? Some dish soap, a specialized cleaner or maybe some secret concoction that you made? Whatever it is, why not share it with the rest of the class? (Unless it's a secret recipe, of course. We won't force you to share that.)
Cherry Gel GoJo is my go to.
I used to keep some orange hand cleaner under the sink, but eventually I came to realize that Dawn ( or a reasonable facsimile ) worked as well as anything. Now, my hand cleaner is right there by the kitchen sink and always ready for use! If I don't get all the grease out from under my nails, I can use it to impress the highfalutin' people I might run into -- "Oh, so you're a mechanic!" They are always amazed.
I bought a tub of these as an impulse buy. Works better on your hands than hand cleaner. They work great for cleaning surfaces (their intended use) and are now a staple product for me.
I found some GOJO wipes that I am keeping in my shop, which is really great when you dont have water. They are also now on my "chuck in the trailer for autocrosses" list.
I have found that GOOP works pretty well with a fingernail brush for in the sink. The fingernail brush is the big key that not many people use. Baring that, wife's used coffee grounds with dawn dishsoap.
The one, the only:
That's the old container. Permatex took it over, I think.
Dish soap for me as well.
I don't need to get into the fingernails regularly since I wear nitrile gloves when wrenching.
In reply to Floating Doc (Forum Supporter) :
I just emptied a Tub O Towels. Great product.
Ditto on dawn and double down on it for clothes.
Dawn. Lava if the dawn doesn't cut it. I have a gallon of gojo I haven't opened in years.
Lava or Dawn dish detergent works for me.Plus I were gloves most of the time.
