    Hypoallergenic Hand Cleaner

    I evidently have developed a sensitivity to the chemical triethanolamine which is used in many of the orange pumice hand cleaners such as Gojo and Fast Orange. My symptoms are a bright red rash and horrific itchyness. Obviously, I need to stop using it.

    Can anyone suggest a hypoallergenic equivalent?

    Seems at least one fatefellow has been found,
    The headache for me is coming awful itching my hands when contact with coolant fluids (and also with epoxies) ... seems Im verged into allergy. Mostly the night after hard working day looks like real hell
    Gloves do not help mach ... comes snaged very soon, at that my hands will perspire.
    The ony way to offload is day or two of timeout.
    cheers,
    herbert

    Yeah I thought earlier on it may be coolant but I don't think so. I'm using KoolMist 78. I use epoxy quite a lot too but I wear gloves and try to avoid touching it when it's liquid. I haven't had any sensitivity patches done yet but I'm reasonably certain it's the hand cleaner.

    I'm going to give Liquid Lava a try. I checked the MSDS and it's free of the suspect chemical.
