Advantages: It works

Disadvantages: Doesn't wash out very easily

Metanium is the best for nappy rash - no question. Red and oozing one minute - dry and healed the next. It works like magic. But hey - why stop at your child's sore bits. I have used it on myself for chaving skin after running etc. It works brilliant. You can also get it on prescription for your kids and save some money! But I have a warning. Do not let your children get hold of it when you are not around. My three year old son awoke early Sunday morning and crawled into the cot with our one year old daughter. He had obtained the metanium from a shelf we thought he couldn't get to. He proceeded to smear his sister from head to toe (especially the hair), the bed clothes, the cot, the walls with the goopy greasy substance. Even after an hour of scrubbing in the tub both children looked like members of the cast of the Mikado. While trying to reaffirm how naughty this was we could not stop giggling at the sight of them. The next day (after a day of wearing hats in public places) I resorted to the only grease cutter I could think of which might get it out of their hair and off their scalps - Fairy liquid. It worked pretty good and after a few days they now look normal. In fact their skin looks lovely. Perhaps it provided a good facial?

Great stuff, but keep it in the medicine cabinet!
