What do you guys use to wash your hands?

[Gabe]

getting ink on your hands is a part of the job don`t get fuzzy boys

[Shawn (EIP)]

Believe it or not AJAX dish soap and a soft scrub pad.

[blue moon]

gloves (my personal preference even though rest of the ppl here don't care for them much)

and

SAATI Remove HC8. Best stuff ever!!! It does smell like bubble gum, but it just removes the ink instantaneously and it has hand conditioner in it. Sold by SAATI directly, I think I paid $36 for the gallon. Bought two gallons about six months ago and still have half a gallon left!

We used to use the GoJo and pumice based stuff, but this works much better, faster and is easier on your hands.

Let me write that down for my next order.

[mooseman]

we like Franmar greenway in 5 gal lots and use it for all ink cleaning issues including hand wash too, right from spray bottles, fast and clean, cuts down on inventory.
keep a few spray bottles smartly placed with some old tee shirts and hands clean quick and easy.

I've seen the guys in my buddy's shop using dehazer but that seems like a bad idea.

What do you guys... soap and water surely doesn't REALLY get any ink off your hands.

we think this is a bad idea , dehaze has typically a fair amount of caustic (sodium hydroxide) bad for skin worse for lungs

I know this sounds gimmicky, but I bought a hand cleaner from Texsourceonline specifically for screen printing.  It was on sale with the wall dispenser which is why I got it, I like wall dispensers.  Anyway, it's thicker than gojo, reminds me more of the Snap-On hand cleaner, does a great job, doesn't slip out of your hands like gojo. like gojo.

We use gojo or these incredible little hand wipes from uline that take everything off your hands. I think home depot sells a cheaper yet still effective version.

[bimmridder]

Waterless hand wipes. Keep a container by each work area. No more trips to the restroom to wash your hands. Time savings alone pays for the higher cost. Just saying.

Seriously guys? Gloves?  I guess we are just clean around here.  Occasionally ink does get on our hands, on the press, on the buckets and on the tables, but it gets wiped up quickly and a quick little rub on the hands with a paper towel and no ink will transfer.  We usually wash our hands twice a day, once before lunch and once when we shut down, and we use the Saati HC8.

Like some others, I use the creamy hand cleaners from auto parts stores, whichever is the best deal of the day.
I also use gloves while working on the car, and yes, they work like a sauna.

Gloves when touching ink buckets and coating screens but not while printing.

[Chadwick]

Gojo hand cleaner if you screwed up and made a mess.
( got some white gunk as well, can't remember the name of it..automotive stuff )
Solvent occassionally when there's no time for a run to the sink.
Soap is best. Get a thing of Sunlight. Keep a scrub-brush at the sink.
If everything's going right, you shouldn't get very dirty.

Teach the 'kids' that it doesn't take much ( of any of it ) either, or they'll make a bigger mess.

We use gloves for the dirty work, because with gloves on, everything becomes dirty work.
Just how it seems to work out here.
They mostly get used when cleaning or washing screens. They keep your hands drier, unless
you wear them for too long..

[sweetts]

I use gloves to put the ink on the screens and to clean the screens but we use gojo

[3Deep]

We have a box of those rubber gloves I use at times, but most of the time if I get ink on my hands I go right to the sink and use soap & water cleans right up.
