Zep id mega ex[pensive for sure, but I found that the Fast orange pumice cleaner at Stuff mart works as well as anything and the price is right.  BTW, I used some vasaline once to grease down my hair for a 50's party and upon getting home tried everthng tyo get it out an nothing worked untill I used the Dawn dish washng detergent.  I too like using exam gloves for preventin, but I use the more expensive blue nitrile gloves as the hold p much better than latex or vinyl.

    I love ZEP products for everything.  NO I dont have financial interest . . .
    
    ZEP 'Glove' is like a heavy duty hand cream that protects your skin before you start work.  
    
    ZEP Champ, and Zep-o-Creme work great too, as do all of the many hand cleaner products they make.  Truly industrial strength and worth the extra bucks.
    
    Oh well, now I will go out and buy some ZEP stock!
