My boss ordered us some " Super Tough Hand Scrub". I've never used anything better!! It actually feels like your hands have been moisturized after using it. It don't dry your hands out at all and doesn't leave that gunky film in the sink. They even have a website...... Super Tough Hand Scrub - Industrial Hand Cleaner Try it out... you might like it.

If you are not looking for a bulk dispenser I am supplying my field techs with Dynatex. It can be used with or without water, no pumice and it doesn't seem to leave a oily residue like most waterless. This stuff comes in a 15oz. bottle and kind of smells like bubblegum.
If you are looking for bulk and like the Cherry Bomb, I believe that Permatex is making M80, smells and works like Cherry Bomb. Uses the same dispenser but a lot better price.

The Dynatex is the best hand cleaner I've ever used, and I've used many, many different brands.
I would rate the Cherry Punch/M80 second, and the Kresto third.
I also have had really good luck with the wipes....they're kinda like baby wipes only they cut grease really well and don't leave much in the way of residue. I used to really like the Wypall brand but here lately I've been buying some @ Western Fluid but I don't remember the brand....there's a tub of them in my shop truck but it's about 300 yards away in 2 feet of snow, so it'll have to wait until later to get the specifics....

Dawn is awesome, but when you're in an area without water, you might as well wash up with spit and gravel because then at least you won't leave a slimy handprint on everything you touch for the next 5 hours....

Dawn dishwashing liquid works as good or better than any handcleaner I've found yet. As a bonus, it breaks the grease down so it doesn't clog the sink up. Not to mention it's quite a bit cheaper.
If it's ground in grease/dirt, I'll grab a piece of red Scotch-brite to scrub with. If you have soft or sensitive skin, try either green, blue, or white pads, which are a lot easier on your skin.

you are correct. liquid dishwashing detergent works better than lacquer thinner on most grease! I've heard thinner's bad for you, though. the gojo is a very trusty plan B, as well as the white degreaser mentioned with walnut shells. but really, I've found nothing that works better than automatic dishwashing liquid.
anyone know what PRC is? it's the nastiest two part epoxy ever, we use it to seal the fuel tanks on aluminum aircraft wings. if you don't take that stuff off within a few minutes, it WILL NOT come off until your dyed skin is dead/gone. liquid detergent is my all time favorite.
with something nasty, I like to use series 8 (painter's shield), a water soluble creme/lotion you coat your hands with before exposed to oil based anything.
