Regularly working with materials like rubber, oil, adhesives, glue, or paint means you’ve also faced the challenge of cleaning stubborn residues from your skin. These substances can be incredibly tough to remove, especially after long hours on the job.

Although protective gloves are a common solution for handling industrial materials, they can sometimes limit dexterity, making detailed tasks harder and increasing the frequency of minor accidents. What’s required is an effective method for cleaning hands that avoids skin irritation or the need for extreme solutions like using scrapers or scouring pads.

CleanCare Ireland has recently partnered with Nettuno, a renowned skincare expert based in Italy, to bring cutting-edge hand-cleaning solutions to the market. With Nettuno’s extensive research, they’ve developed products that not only clean efficiently but also protect and care for your hands—the most valuable tools you have.

 

Cleaning Hands With Solvents Can Irritate

Acetone, alcohol-based solutions, or other solvents are a popular choice for removing industrial adhesives or oil-based paints. While effective, these can be harsh, especially on dry or damaged skin, potentially leading to further irritation.

Is there a safer way to clean hands without relying on solvents that may be flammable or too aggressive for regular use? Thankfully, there are gentler alternatives that offer a less aggressive, though sometimes slower, solution.

 

Soaking Hands In Warm Water

Step 1: Mix warm water with mild soap or lemon juice.

Step 2: Soak hands for about thirty minutes.

Step 3: Use a pumice stone to help dissolve the adhesive. 

However, this method is time-consuming and impractical in most work environments, where efficiency is key.

Although some alternatives work, they often fall short in removing the most resistant industrial contaminants quickly or effectively. Skin is both strong and sensitive, requiring certified and skin-friendly products for thorough cleaning.
