Heads up chaps, Swarfega pump dispensers at Aldi from today

Molecular biologist by trade, so gloves are second nature.  They do keep your hands clean, but they may not offer as much protection as we often think, and may give a false sense of security.  The Area heath and safety coordinator and H+S team had to look into some of this stuff, for example methanol can get through standard nitrile in about 30 seconds, and carry things through as well.  Back in the day we all knew that DMSO went through latex like it wasn't there and people almost got drunk in this way.  At work I can constantly throw them away, I do sometimes deal with some horrible stuff, and in the main we don't want to contaminate the work, but at home I do tend to reuse.  Just be a bit careful with the nastier stuff.

I bought some Swarfega a year or so ago as I had fond memories of it from my youth and was expecting great things...alas, like smaller Wagon Wheels and Tobelerones, I was disappointed.  

As above, bought nitrile workshop gloves and solved the problem completely.

Wear some gloves yer dirty buggers.

I got  some of this orange Swarfega a while back and it smells like sick now ! It stills removes oil and grime but has it gone "off" ?

Good spot: ta v much. My ancient tub is running out.

Got some months ago, still using it, good stuff.
