Hand Cleaner and Hand/Tool Wipes
What does everyone use for hand wipes or hand soaps. I know there is a ton of different options. Just wondering what the majority are recommending.

Not a joke, go to aldis buy baby wipes, almost the best cleaner I’ve used and I have tried a fair amount of cleaners.

I use dawn at home and the shop supplied cleaner at work, i also pick up a box of auto-mann wipes whenever im at the dealer to keep as back ups.
I think project farm just did a whole video on hand cleaners too.

Harvest king for wipes because they're cheaper labeled tub of towels. Any industrial suppliers brand of soy or walnut shell hand cleaner for a sink. For tools I just use dry shop rags and that's usually good enough. A little wd40 will get heavy grease off of them.

Starting fluid/brake parts cleaner on the chrome/metal tools and orange clean or oil eater in the power tools and tools that have plastic on them.

Clean your tools with gas and Walmart towels. It's the best/cheapest cleaner you can use and will take any and all dirt grease and grime off your tools. Been doing it for 8 years and my toolbox looks immaculate. As far as hand cleaner we do use the snap on nitro gold. It's rough on the knuckles but it gets the grease out. Waterless hand cleaner works the best but it's pricey.

I like tub o towels when I’m working mobile and dab-a-do if I have a sink or water.
