Not knowing about gojo is grounds to have your man card revoked.

Absolutely!

Seriously, what the fuck is it? I've probably seen the stuff but I'm not obsessed with brand names so I probably wouldn't call it Gojo?. There isn't even a Wikipedia entry on this shit.

If you work on cars, Gojo or Fast Orange are absolute necessities. Fantastic stuff.

Bar soap doesn't have the granules in it. This stuff is like washing your hands with very smooth sandpaper. Anyone who gets their hands really dirty swears by it.

So no one has actually said what it is so far but I'm guessing Gojo = soap with pumice in it? If so, yeah that stuff rawks.

I already Googled it, dick face. Problem is Gojo isn't a product, it's a brand with a ton of products. Not my fault that you Americans are so brainwashed by advertising that you can't separate a product from it' brand.

Sorry, was just waiting for a chance to use that site.

Gojo is exactly what you said, a handwash with pumice. Its kind of like Kleenex to me...more of a product than a name brand.

I prefer ZEP's painters partner. However, most of those pumice cleaners work pretty good.

An inspection was required on equipment inside a non-heated structure that sat not too far south of the Arctic Circle. Thermals, jeans, insulated Carhartts, plus a clean-suit for good measure.

Work was ongoing. Cleaning of large horizontal mating surfaces was being done, in preparation for reassembly of the machinery. MEK was still an acceptable solvent, as long as suitable gloves and venturi air blowers were used.

Sat my butt down on a bright and shiny horizontal surface to take some measurements. Several moments later my ass began to scream,"WTF." A can of MEK had been knocked over, close enough to make it to my posterior.

The burn was a very special and rather intense pain. The only thing to do was to strip down to just the upper thermals and shirt, while hollerin', "get the Gojo - Gojo - Go . . ."

Pneumatic venturi blowers, by nature, can generate significantly lower than ambient air temperatures. Shrinkage was substantial. My gonads didn't drop back down out of their temporary hiding place for quite some time.

The lanolin in the Gojo did a fine job of providing at least some relief. About a week later, after the fluorescent red glow from my ass had diminished, the peeling of the flesh began.

Yes, Gojo is a most excellent invention!
