I have a container of Gojo natural orange in my garage. Comes in handy after performing routine maintenance on my vehicles and yard work. Gojo user since the 1980s.

[@Nick_G7IZR]

A couple of ideas: 1. Best desiccant? Cat litter, silica, something else? I've seen some comparisons, but not a detailed one. 2. Best oil absorbent when working on boats and cars? Cloths, sand, oil absorbing mats 3. Most efficient coolant? (if you haven't already) Inc those water-free ones.

[@charlesgrave]

I like that second one, would be nice to see what soaks up oil the best off of concrete /asphalt

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestions.

[@ShortLifeProductions]

@@ProjectFarm a good test I would like to see on the topic of Oil absorbent cat litter/sand would be a simple pour and sweep. you spill some oil, pour the product on, wait for a set amount of time say 15-20min then sweep. to limit variables you could also pour the same amount of oil and same amount of oil absorbent. Another good test would be with a clear container put a set amount of oil and top it off with absorbent then let it sit 24 hours and measure how far up the oil was absorbed. Thank you for all your hard work we all appreciate it!

[@Sinillo]

Most efficient coolant would be great

[@fernando13e]

A little tip I learned from a buddy with a bike restoration business: Gojo Orange hand scrub can be used as a rust remover for chrome steel parts. You use it as a polish and aluminum foil sheets and balls as your "scrubber"...he could take a rusty old bike and have it looking brand new in a half hour.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thank you for the tip!

[@mikemcchesney2555]

Another great rust remover stainless cleaner is Kool-Aid POWDER and water. No sugar. Orange Kool-Aid is best. Its almost pure citric acid. I say Kool-Aid, but any "Artificially Flavored Orange Drink" Powder will do nicely. That's for all you Squidley's out there! LOL

Thanks!

[@Nighthawkinlight]

When I was a kid i had a little bottle of orange hand cleaner that went on as a paste and as you rubbed it it dried out, beaded up and fell off your hands leaving them dry and clean without a rag. I've been searching for that mystery hand cleaner for more than 15yrs since. I think recently I had an epiphany that the cleaner was probably ordinary gojo or fastorange, but from a bottle so old it had started drying out. I don't know for sure. I've tried a few experiments mixing gojo with pva glue because glue tends to bead up in the same way. That sort of worked similarly to how I remember but dried a little slowly for my liking. The search continues.

[@aubreya2641]

I remember that but don't remember what it was.

[@c.j.1089]

There were a few of them out there. I think you're referring to Gojo waterless hand cleaner. The only waterless product on the market that I'm aware of is Goop waterless hand cleaner.

[@hendu166]

Have you tried tub o scrub? I have not tried it without a rag, but as a waterless cleaner, I like it. And I think if you work it dry, it may do what you want

[@Nighthawkinlight]

Almost all the cleaners say "waterless", but what that means is that they wipe off with a rag, not that the cleaner itself dries and falls off.

[@DanielKoch87]

Super Clean waterless toweless hand cleaner made by Castrol. I think this is the stuff you're thinking about.

CNC Mechanic here and my work used to buy Gojo orange. Its the worst cleaner I have ever used.

I use Boraxo hand cleaner. Its a white powder , that must be used on wet hands. Mainly because it works with water. One thing you completely over looked is that some of the hand cleaners don't work well on cold hands, or wet hands.

A haaaaaaa. HAND CLEANER!!!!! Nice one. There's a little-known but life-changing bit of advice someone once gave me on day 1 as a 16-year-old trainee car mechanic, and that was how best to clean your hands at the end of every day in as careful a way as you can by inflicting as little damage as possible to your skin on a daily basis. He was an old boy, much older than usual retirement age, but was still working due to his own situations in life. He was a caring person, not like most other mechanics at the time. He said to me, always pull most of the dirt away from your hands onto a cloth first, and hence reducing or even completely avoiding harsher treatment like rubbing hands together and lathering and scrubbing with a brush, etc. That way, you can remove the majority of contaminants from your hands using much more skin-friendly hand soaps before even considering using any harsh chemicals at all. At 55, I still remember that fella, and still use a towelling flannel to this day, avoiding the use of hand cleaners. The cloth is then very easily cleaned using the same, sensitive soap as for your hands. Still enjoying working on my own bikes and cars now, probably one of the best pieces of advice I've ever had in my life. 🙂

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks! Thanks for sharing.

[@CitEnthusiast]

Good experience. i don't use pumice cleaners for that reason, much to hard on the skin. So I've used Goop or Go Jo for a long time. Both of them want you to wipe dry, not use water, to retain the skin conditioners on the skin. A nail brush is mandatory, and mostly today I wash my hands in the sink rather than just wipe. Not all nail brushes are equal, so I've tried many different ones and found a shorter bristle length is better. A new brush design is out with a single row of bristles up against the plastic top so you can get deeper into the nail, it's helpful in getting the nails clean. Since I'm not a mechanic by trade, but do a lot of dirty car work as my hobby, I like to have super clean hands and nails, and so does my SO. 🙂. This was a good review, I may try the Zolex Cherry since it's top rated.

The white Permatex and original Gojo reminds me of my favorite, GOOP! Always used GOOP in the past with boraxo as the grit, never had any mess that it couldn't take care of.

Thanks bro. Back in the day I used to get Goop. It was an amazing product and cheap. One of the hardest things to get off my hands was Zinnser Cover Stain oil based primer. Goop worked well. Paint thinner works, but it soaks in to your pores and causes liver damage. I use Dawn straight for grease and it works well. Now that I can't find Goop, I get the Gojo.

The crazy questions my mind thinks of your channel has the answers!!! Thank you

I delivered (bulk tanker) to a hand cleaner manufacturer, I noticed the lanolin drop location had not been used in a while. I asked the worker about it and he said lanolin is expensive so they only put enough to say that it has it .

[@gregkimura5906]

Most of these brands I've never heard of. Gojo and Gojo Orange are the ones I've used in the past. There was also some powdered hand cleaner I used in shop class. Boraxo or something like that I used for a while as well (light blue colored cylindrical container filled with powder). I'll admit that most times I just throw on a pair of latex gloves - it allows me to get some work done and I can go to my office job Monday morning! Awesome comparison!!! Keep up the good work!

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks, will do!

[@gerrylewis6025]

When I was a kid in the 60s and worked in a gas station, we used Kerosene mixed with a little tide detergent, then Had Boraxo hand soap. The Boraxo bar was green with gritty borax in it. Then in the late 70s and 80s we started using a Gojo product that had an orange smell to it. I now keep a product called Tub of Towels in my garage. You can pull one towel out and it cleans every type of dirt, grease, tar, glue that I have gotten on my hands and you don't need to wash with soap and water afterwards. Thanks for the comparison though. very thorough.

[@DeviantDespot]

Of all the review type channels, this one definitely has the most influence on my purchase decisions.

It has been a little over 5 years I believe since we have had a good epoxy comparison. I scrolled for a newer one but no luck. Have a awesome day man your videos are the best and never biased

[@ProjectFarm]

Just saved me a ton of money and time. Thank you for such an unbiased, thorough and well planned review.

You are welcome! Glad to hear!

One of the most impressive aspects about this channel is the testing methodology and the variety of jigs, apparatuses that he dreams up and turns into reality. I enjoy seeing what he dreams up to perform the test as much as the product testing itself. As Todd would say, "Very Impressive!!"

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks so much!

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

What a great video The best thing I have found for getting grease off is The Foaming Soap at bed bath and beyond for some reason it does 100 times better then even the Fast orange Xtreme small tiny pump of foam and it will clean your hands arms and face and Still get 100 percent off without needing to watch again @Project Farm

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks!

[@Bay0Wulf]

I started using Permatex DL as a kid in the 60s and after decades of greasy grimy work, I still buy and even special order the DL. I’ve tried the “grit” stuff which works okay but leaves its grit behind. The DL creams, dissolves while rubbing and wipes away clean and smooth. No washing required. It also works well as a spot treatment for clothing. I’ll have to try the “Extreme” version.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

[@MichaelWahlBerardi]

Hi, I watch and like your videos and I have a comment about hand cleaners. I’m a musician and like most musicians we tend to learn to do a lot of things ourselves, especially car repairs. Believe it or not the best hand degreaser is cooking oil. I would just pour some cooking oil on my hands and scrub as usual and then wipe off with paper towels. When my hands seemed clean I then would wash with soap and water. This is past tense because I now always use gloves. Thanks and keep up the good work.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing! Thanks, will do!

[@ZombiePanda1776]

We use ZEP TKO at my automotive shop and it works better than anything else we've tried. Glad to see it did well here in testing as well.

[@rwood1995]

itys a shame the grip goijo orange has on the industry. Heard TKO is great but never got to try it

[@WthaHatchet]

I used gojo for years and then I switched to fast orange for a very long time. After that I heard about tuba towels. I've used it for I think about 5 years now and I have never looked back. I keep them in all my rides that I do work with The fact that you can just wipe your hands off, leaving nothing behind and jump right back in your ride. Not worrying about transfer of whatever you had on your hands to your vehicle is so convenient. They also stay in my shop permanently and under my sinks in my home. I think they actually work better than the tub of scrub. I don't know why but they do. Just a suggestion! Give em a try! 🤘

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@brodyb3770]

I have tried all the hand cleaners after working on cars and after I could not get the grease off one time I tried laundry detergent. The arm and hammer brand works wonders on getting grease off. I use it everytime now for getting the grime off.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@dohc22h]

I was in the Marine Corps as a Bulk Fueler and went to POL School at Ft. Lee Virginia. It was an Army base so you know it had good funding. But I remember they had state of the art testing equipment in their lab to perform every test you could possibly think of regarding Petroleum, Oils and Lubricants. Very specific and detail oriented testing. At that time in 1994 the worst oil was Quakerstate followed by Penzoil and of course Amsoil taking the win. Pretty much doing all the kinds of tests that you do. Love the channel.👍

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks!

[@ruck-a-tron]

When I was an aircraft mechanic we had the Gojo Orange. It works pretty good for oil and jet fuel. At home I have always used Lava soap... mostly from nostalgia because my grandfather used to always have it around the house. It works pretty good too though.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@unionwelder598]

I literally buy things because of this guy. Keep it up. So good

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks, will do!

[@scottmcwilliams2204]

You should do a video on shop fans. For those of us with small garages and don't have the space for a 42" or 50" drum fan it would be nice to know if a 24", 30" or 36" fan will do the job. It seems like the CFM ratings are very subjective and some fans shoot air in a straight line and some spread it out to cover a large area.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@SuperPropwash]

I make my own with coffee grounds and Dawn or Palmolive concentrated dish detergent. Just save your old coffee grounds then squeeze in some detergent to make a slushy then put in an old dish detergent bottle and squeeze it out on your hands and scrub. Works great. Fine ground may be better.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

Project Farm, you are not allowed to stop doing reviews on KZbin, ever. Thank you for all of your efforts.

[@ProjectFarm]

You are welcome!

[@GunnysWrenches]

For my business one of the key takeaways is ease of use. Many of these soap companies want you to use their own proprietary, usually wall mounted dispensers. For some shop owners like mysef, this is a negative deterrent to purchasing. I don’t want some crap mounted on my wall only for them to change the dispenser, discontinue the product or find a better replacement, etc. Great video and my shop currently has the Permatex Extreme in use at the moment 😆 I purchased it about 6-8months ago purely based off of (1) it was the cheapest deal at the time and (2) we had never tried that scent before. It smells good and seems to work just as good as all the previous hand soaps. While overall none of us have experienced any ground breaking results just cleaning our hands over our regular (GoJo orange or cherry) it definitely has more “bang for the buck” when looking at container size (price per ounce) and ease of use (just sits in the deep sink).

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

[@10YearOldTom]

I do diesel truck repair now. The best is the snap on walnut. Barely need a quarter size for most clean up, maybe a little extra for the arms with a nail brush. The original grip clean "dirt" formula is a decent cheaper alternative. The snap on is like $34 for the quart I think and it lasts and smells ok. Cintas also has a walnut scrub but in super small containers from their Sanis line. That stuff was very similar and worked very well. The pumice in some of the soaps is good for weekend warrior stuff

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

[@hebersaravia5357]

I love all of your videos, been watching for the past 2 years. Got a suggestion after my Klein glow rods broke. I was trying to see a forum on comparisons between different brand glow rods and no one seems to talk about it. But I love your videos, thank you for making entertaining, useful content

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@josephsekavec]

I like how you bought like 200 power tools and batteries over the years but wouldn't buy the zep hand pump. You are my favorite YT channel thanks for doing what you do!

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks!

[@CedroCron]

I don't have access to all these up here in the Great White North, but I have used the Gojo Orange for years, both as a laundry stain pre-treatment for greasy stains and as a hand cleaner and I have never been disappointed. Thanks for the great video Todd. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for these brands on my cross-border shopping trips. Cheers!

[@ProjectFarm]

You are welcome!

[@jaredinark]

Thanks for testing hand cleaners, this was one I suggested after watching your degreaser review. Keep up the great work!

[@ProjectFarm]

You are welcome! Thank, will do!

[@jbtek1]

Another great test! For greasy hands, I like using cooking oil (with a brush or a little grit for stubborn grease) followed by dish detergent. It doesn't dry out your hands like some of the citrus cleaners and its dirt cheap.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.k

[@rayyanlakho5813]

hey there! i hope you still remember me! i am really impressed how far your channel has grown! from 100k to 3 million subscribers! your effort has not gone in vain! i have been very busy since i moved into a IT university and didnt have enough time to talk to anyone including you! but i almost forgot you because of the stress i had , but now that i found you again , i wanted to congratulate you on your 1 mil , 2 mil and 3 mil mark! 😅 , well.. you still have so many ideas! thanks for helping so many american and international people for the list of tools though i couldnt effort any , only some of them which only lasts for a day or so hahaha

Love project farm. Has definitely affected my choices on a few purchases and ive not been disappointed. Great ideas on how to test things. Always love the contraptions like the back and forth scrubbing rig. And ofcourse cousin eddy doing crazy stuff. Amazing work!

Gojo natural orange has been my go-to forever and I was rooting for it the whole time!!

Thanks for sharing.

please do one of these tests on hand wipes.. my favorite is (Orange Goop Multi-Purpose Ruff Orange Towels) i do mechanic work on the side all the time and these are a must in my garage to do clean up.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the suggestion.

[@riddledtomcat1360]

I used to be a parts delivery driver for Toyota. As a result, i've used many different hand cleaners as each shop had a different one. the Zep TKO was by far my favorite.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@l.no.solace7209]

Recently started working on kitchen fire suppression systems, grease, roof tar, firecaulk, you name it, it stays on my hands for days, as always, this video is an amazing help for my shopping for a cleaner. Thanks!!

[@ProjectFarm]

You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.

[@CitEnthusiast]

Could you put up a chart showing the costs per ounce of each cleaner? That would help show which one is more effective by cost. Thanks for this video, well done!

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for the suggestion.

[@gordonmorrow]

Another excellent, practical evaluation by our favorite KZbin product tester! Well done.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks!

[@FastEvan47]

Zep Cherry Bomb is the best hand cleaner I’ve ever used. I would recommend it to everyone. Put it on dry hands/arms and add a very small amount of water. Scrub some more, rinse. Works GREAT! I will say, it doesn’t perform as good if you’re in a place where water isn’t readily available (i.e. field service) It leaves a lot of the grit on your hands if you just wipe it off. I have some in my service truck and I have a jug of water to rinse off with as well as Tub O’ Towels. I take the Cherry Bomb out of my service truck in the winter time.

Another great video. Subjectively, we've been using the Gojo natural orange for a couple of years and it worked so well that we've never tried anything different. Glad to see it does as well as we think it does.

We have had problems with pumice clogging the drain in our handwash stations at times. I prefer the Permatex type hand cleaner the majority of times myself.

[@kladen2006]

SBS-33. I've been cleaning my dirty mechanic hand for over 20yrs now and the best soap I had was, SBS-33. Get the grease and dirt out and doesn't destroy your skin. Unfortunately I can't get it at my current job.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

[@icychill105]

We used gojo orange and Boraxo at work to remove the printing ink after press maintenance. It was the best and using a scrubbing brush also helped. only had a week long trial of the zolex cherry and it made the entire locker room smell like cough syrup.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for sharing.

[@velvanae]

I have been an automotive mechanic for over 20 years and now switched to working on old (1930s) factory machines, so I'm no stranger to grease, oil, etc. I do not like the fast orange, gojo orange, or the like because they are too watery and don't work well for me. Typically I used Gojo original, but the level of filth I run into needs some sort of grit to the cleaner. So what I do is mix pumice (we use it for polishing) with Palmolive dish detergent to make a paste. usually, about a quarter-sized amount will remove everything and still leave my hands soft. I was using Dawn, but that left my hands dry.

[@ProjectFarm]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@musicalmcbride]

Joe's is by far my favorite hand cleaner. The one with the red label dissolves grease really well and is a smooth texture, the one with the green label has added grit for scrubbing.

[@ProjectFarm]
