Mechanics Soap

Postby WhiteGTB » Sun Oct 26, 2008 5:20 pm

Does anyone know where to buy the gritty soap that mechanics use?

The normal household soap just doesn't cut it.

Yeah, nothing like installing mods yourself :) learn abit along the way too :!:

Wurth is awesome stuff, hard to get a hold off though. If anyone out there can grab some Wurth stuff, I'd be happy to buy it.

Solvol is very easy to get your hands on (pardon the pun), check your local Bunnings.

Another option is to use dishwashing liquid and white sand - doesn't have the solvent power but will scrub your hands pretty clean.
