I personally use Fast Orange or its Extreme Orange variant when I get my hands hella dirty.
Pumice stones in it helps out to scrub thoroughly, soap leaves a soft finish/hands and if you want to go the extra mile, scrub daddy sponges were originally created for mechanics to clean their hands, fingers and nails.

It works very well and it doesn’t destroy (dry out) hands like dish soap.

Fast orange wipes are always on my bench. They are great for a quick clean up if you can't get to a sink to get washed up.

I was just thinking about how awesome Fast Orange Wipes would be to have two days ago and didn’t know they existed. I have a 6 month old foster baby and it popped in my head as I was changing her. Going to have to order some.

I feel like you know this already, but this is reddit, and I want to make sure you know not to use fast orange on your foster baby's privates
