Zep Reach Industrial Strength Hand Cleaner – 1 Gallon – Soil Removal

Description

Product Overview

Zep Reach Industrial Strength Hand Cleaner is engineered for the toughest industrial environments where ordinary soaps simply cannot keep up. The formula combines a high‑performance solvent, a robust detergent, and a fine pumice abrasive to create a penetrating cleaning action that dissolves and lifts heavy soils such as grease, ink, resin, tar, carbon, and asphalt. Each gallon delivers a consistent concentration of active ingredients, ensuring that every use provides the same level of cleaning power that professionals rely on day after day.

Beyond its aggressive cleaning capability, the product is thoughtfully enriched with lanolin and other skin‑friendly emollients. These ingredients form a protective barrier on the skin, reducing the risk of chapping and dryness that often accompany frequent hand washing in harsh conditions. The result is a hand cleaner that not only removes stubborn contaminants but also maintains hand comfort, allowing workers to stay productive without the need for additional moisturizers.

The pleasant almond fragrance adds a subtle, clean scent that leaves hands feeling fresh rather than chemically harsh. This sensory benefit enhances the overall user experience, especially in workplaces where multiple hand washes are required throughout a shift. The 1‑gallon containers are packaged in a case of four, providing a bulk solution that is both cost‑effective and convenient for large teams or facilities.

Manufactured by Zep, a trusted name in industrial cleaning solutions, this hand cleaner meets rigorous quality standards and is backed by a legacy of performance in the janitorial and sanitation market. The product dimensions of 12.75 x 12.75 x 12 inches make the containers easy to store on shelves, in utility closets, or on workstations without taking up excessive space.

With a 4.6‑star rating from over 130 verified customer reviews, the Reach formula has proven its reliability across a wide range of applications. Whether you are a mechanic, painter, construction worker, or any professional who regularly encounters heavy grime, this hand cleaner is designed to meet the demands of your trade.

Usage

The Reach hand cleaner is ideal for environments where grease, oil, and industrial residues are common. Apply a generous amount to wet hands, work the lather into a rich foam, and allow the solvent‑detergent‑pumice blend to penetrate the soil. After a brief massage, rinse thoroughly with water. The formula works effectively on both fresh and cured residues, making it suitable for pre‑maintenance cleaning as well as post‑job hand care.

Because the product is formulated to be gentle on skin, it can be used multiple times throughout a shift without causing irritation. This makes it an excellent choice for workers who need to clean their hands repeatedly, such as automotive technicians, metal fabricators, and warehouse personnel handling adhesive tapes or packaging materials. The almond scent provides a subtle freshness that helps maintain a pleasant work environment even after extended use.

For optimal results, store the containers at room temperature and keep the lids tightly sealed when not in use. The bulk packaging is designed for easy dispensing, allowing quick access in high‑traffic areas like tool rooms, break rooms, and entry points to workshops. The product’s compatibility with standard hand‑washing stations means it can be integrated seamlessly into existing sanitation routines.

FAQ

What types of soils can Reach hand cleaner remove?

Reach is formulated to tackle a wide range of industrial soils, including motor oil, grease, ink, resin, adhesives, tar, carbon buildup, and asphalt. The combination of solvent, detergent, and pumice provides a penetrating action that lifts both fresh and cured contaminants, making it suitable for automotive shops, paint facilities, construction sites, and manufacturing plants.

Is the formula safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. While Reach is a strong cleaner, it is balanced with lanolin and other skin‑conditioning agents that help maintain the skin’s natural moisture barrier. This reduces the likelihood of irritation or dryness, even when hands are washed multiple times per shift. Users with known sensitivities should still perform a brief patch test if they have concerns.

Can I use Reach with standard hand‑washing stations?

Absolutely. The product is designed to work with ordinary water temperature and flow rates. Simply apply the recommended amount to wet hands, work into a lather, and rinse thoroughly. No special equipment or additional rinsing agents are required.

How should I store the product to maintain its effectiveness?

Store the containers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the lids tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation of the solvent components. Proper storage ensures the formula remains stable and ready for use over its shelf life.
