Ah Swarfega – always added a certain piquancy to a cheese sandwich I recall!

or you could try the alternative route of wearing gloves. I like the nitrile disposable ones . I usually get a couple of days use out of a pair before they rip. Some talcum powder on the hands usually helps when refitting them. You can pick up a box from one of the stalls at the shows.

Don't get the cheaper latex type. I find they wrap themselves round the lathe handles in use!

Kimberly Clark Wypall are very effective. Good for all sorts of cleaning jobs.

Baby Wipes and Swarfega. Set three small piles of baby wipes ready for use, "wash" hands with swarfega, then use the baby wipes, by the third pile hands should be clean. Works for me when customer locks up before I can get washed after a job.

Why not set up a 10litre water container with a tap? Put it by the door, and use whatever handcleaner you use indoors.

I would be surprised if these wipes do not do it for you, they turned my black jeans grey when I had to remove some black adhesive from them, normal workshop dirt is no problem, probably not for anyone with a sensitive skin though.
