Product Information
Full details
Swarfega Orange is a professional-grade, heavy-duty hand cleaner designed for tradespeople, mechanics, and industrial workers who frequently battle ingrained grease, oil, and general grime. It leverages non-abrasive cornmeal scrubbing agents to deep-clean skin without causing damage, making it highly effective for daily use. While it provides excellent cleaning power and moisturizing benefits, users should note that as a heavy-duty product, it requires a thorough water rinse to ensure all cornmeal residue is removed from between fingers and under fingernails.

FAQs
Is this product safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, it is dermatologically tested and non-irritating; however, if you have known allergies to citrus or corn-based products, perform a small patch test first.
Can I use this without water?
No, this product requires water to emulsify the grease and rinse away both the dirt and the cornmeal scrubbers.
Is it safe for use in a body shop?
Yes, because the formula is silicone-free, it is safe for use in professional spray shops and fabrication environments where silicone contamination is a concern.
Does it contain harsh solvents?
No, it is entirely solvent-free, relying instead on high-performance surfactants and mechanical scrubbing agents.
How long will a 250ml bottle last?
Usage depends on frequency, but because the formula is concentrated, a small dollop the size of a coin is usually sufficient for a thorough hand cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Hands still feel greasy after one wash
Ensure hands are dry or only lightly damp when applying; the scrubbing agents work best when they have direct contact with the grease before water is added.
Drains are clogging
While cornmeal is designed to rinse easily, always ensure you use sufficient water pressure during the rinsing phase to carry all particles through the trap.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
- Usage: Use only on skin. Avoid contact with eyes; if contact occurs, rinse immediately with clean water.
- Storage: Keep the bottle stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the moisturizing agents.
- Compatibility: The silicone-free formula makes this an excellent choice for environments where paint, adhesives, or specialized finishes are applied, as it leaves no residue that could interfere with bonding.
- Care: Ensure the cap is closed tightly after each use to prevent the product from drying out or collecting dust at the nozzle.
