Polycell Swarfega Hand Cleaners

New to the Swarfega Hand Cleaner range is Swarfega Orange, a natural hand cleaner in a pump action dispenser. The container is bright red, much like the other products in the Swarfega range, with an orange label which simply states Swarfega Orange and goes on to say its tough on dirt, gentle on skin and removes oils, greases and general dirt and grime. Our dispenser usually lives under the kitchen sink where the other 'alf uses it to rid his hands of all manner of slimey things after working on his car. Recently its migrated to the bathroom where I discovered the gent in question using it to remove temporary tatttoos from the offsprings arms after they'd ...  Read the complete review

Swarfega Rapid Hand Cleaner, quite an expensive product in one way at around £4 for a 500g tub but it does live up to expectations. Once upon a time I had a relative who worked for Deb Chemicals who manufacture Swarfega, so we were used to having an unlimited supply at a vastly reduced price. All good things come to an end, my relative retired and nowadays we have to pay full price for the hand cleaning gel. One thing is certain, I am not afraid to get my hands dirty and in the past I have been roped in to help with lots of projects. Every year at the end of the season our lawn mower gets taken apart for its annual service, if we send it to the garden ...  Read the complete review

My other half works as a tyre fitter repairing huge plant and wagon tyres. Most of his work is based around construction sites, farmlands and rubbish tips. His job is very manual and very very dirty. Due to the nature of his work he gets all types of dirt ranging from quarry mud to hydrolic oil over his hands. Thus when he gets home, he used to use a bar of soap or half a bottle of hand wash just to get them clean. A friend of ours reccomended Swarfega rapid hand cleaner. So off we went to Wilkinsons where we found a 250g pot for around £4. Which is quite expensive, but on our friends reccomendation we bit the bullet and deceided to give it a go.

It doesn't work on your clothes, but this new hand-cleaner from Polycell does a great job of removing that sticky stuff from your hands. Forget meths or turps which leaves a foul smell, makes your eyes water and gets a greasy sludge all over your sink - this stuff is the business! Not only does it clean your hands, but it has an added conditioner which leaves them feel soft and smooth as a baby's bum. This product contains micro-polymer granules which when rubbed into your hands takes off even the stubbornist paint, glue, varnish, resins or sealant residues. It has a pleasant lemony-smell and could probably double as an ordinary hand soap. ...  Read the complete review

This really is a must in the kitchen. I keep a tin of Swarfega in the cupboard just in case. It is excellent for removing grease, oil, paint and even grass and soil stains (plus lots of other hard to shift stains). It comes as a slimey green gel which you apply to dry hands.It feels squelchy rather like hair gel but not as sticky. Rub hands together and wash off. If you often get your hands very oily you might like to keep a box of sand in the cupboard too. Sounds stupid, but if you rub your hands with sand before using Swarfega if is more effective on oil. ...  Read the complete review
