To use it doesn't feel quite as aggressive as Swarfega, but does work at least as well. Muc-Off have included conditioners to look after your skin, and it leaves a not unpleasant scent on your hands after washing. They haven't used any nasty chemicals to produce it, so people with sensitive skin should be just fine.
The large tub lasts for ages, you only need a small scoop for well oiled hands. The vivid pink nicely echoes the company's trademark colour, and the smell emanating from the opened tube isn't at all offensive or overly strong.
The 500ml tub is good value for money. I've been using it frequently for the past few weeks and my hands still feel, well the same as they did before. Only now it's far easier to scrub the oil and dirt off my hands after I've been tinkering with the bike in the garage. It's far easier than trying to scrub hands clean with a brush and bar of soap.
Effective hand cleaner for the home mechanic.
