TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner in a 4 litre pump dispenser. Removes paint, grease, adhesive and general grime. Contains natural citrus oil, moisturisers and walnut scrub particles to leave hands clean without excessive drying.
TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner is a 4 litre pump-dispensed hand cleaner designed for tradespeople who work with serious muck on a daily basis. Paint, adhesive residue, grease, sealant and general site dirt are all within its scope. It is the kind of heavy duty hand cleaner you keep by the sink in the workshop, on the van, or at the welfare unit on site — somewhere it gets used a dozen times a day without anyone thinking twice about it.
What sets this apart from ordinary soap is the walnut scrub particles. These provide gentle mechanical abrasion to lift ingrained dirt from the hands without the skin damage that comes with repeated use of solvent-based cleaners. Builders, mechanics, roofers and decorators tend to wash their hands far more often than office workers, and the cumulative effect of harsh cleaning products shows. TIMCO has built moisturisers and natural citrus oil into the formula specifically to address this. The citrus oil helps cut through oil and grease chemically, while the moisturisers leave the skin in reasonable condition at the end of a long day.
What TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner Removes
This hand cleaner handles the kind of contamination that standard hand soap simply does not touch. Silicone sealant residue, expanding foam deposits, emulsion and gloss paint, contact adhesive, bitumen-based products and general workshop grime all respond well to the citrus and scrub combination. It is not a solvent cleaner, so it is safer for frequent use and far better for your skin in the long run. Anyone who has used neat acetone or thinners to clean their hands will know exactly what the alternative looks like after a few weeks.
A Note on the Pump Format
The 4 litre pump format is a practical choice for shared workspaces. A pump dispenser gives a controlled dose with one hand, which matters when the other hand is already covered in mastic. It avoids the mess and waste that comes with pouring from a standard container, and a 4 litre bottle will last a small crew a reasonable amount of time before it needs replacing. It sits neatly on a shelf or workbench without taking up significant space.
The heavy duty hand cleaner is water-activated and rinses cleanly without leaving a greasy residue. The citrus scent is present but not overpowering — a small detail, but one that makes the welfare cabin a slightly more pleasant place to be. The formula does not require a separate nail brush in most cases, as the walnut scrub particles do enough of the mechanical work on their own.
For anyone buying consumables for a team, the 4 litre size represents reasonable value compared to smaller bottles purchased more frequently. It is straightforward to refill a smaller pump bottle from the main container if a more portable format is needed on different parts of a site.
Pro Tip: Wet your hands before applying the cleaner rather than after — the walnut scrub particles work more effectively when worked into dry or slightly damp skin before you add water to rinse.
TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner is used across most trades where hands come into regular contact with difficult substances. Builders, decorators, roofers, joiners, mechanics, plumbers and groundworkers all encounter grease, paint, adhesive and bitumen as part of their daily work. This cleaner is a standard welfare unit and workshop product, kept at wash stations, in vans and on site. It is equally at home in a domestic garage or a busy commercial workshop where multiple people need clean hands throughout the shift.

Apply a small amount of TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner to dry or slightly damp hands. Work the product into the palms, knuckles and fingers, allowing the walnut scrub particles and citrus oil to loosen dirt and grease. Add a small amount of water and continue working the lather before rinsing thoroughly under running water.
For particularly heavy contamination such as bitumen, expanding foam or contact adhesive, a second application may be needed. Normal soap can follow if a lighter finish is preferred, though the moisturisers in the formula usually leave hands in a clean and comfortable state without it.
Dispense one pump of cleaner onto dry or slightly damp hands
Rub the cleaner thoroughly into palms, fingers and knuckles without adding water first
Work the scrub particles into heavily soiled areas, paying attention to nails and skin creases
Add a small amount of water to activate the lather and continue rubbing
Rinse hands fully under running water until all cleaner is removed
Repeat the application if heavy contamination such as bitumen or adhesive remains
Does this hand cleaner contain solvents?
No. TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner uses natural citrus oil and walnut scrub particles to remove contamination rather than solvents. This makes it significantly safer for repeated daily use and much less likely to cause long-term skin drying or damage compared to solvent-based alternatives.
How long will a 4 litre bottle last on a working site?
That depends on crew size and how dirty the work is. For a single tradesperson using it several times a day, a 4 litre bottle typically lasts several weeks. For a small crew of three to five people, expect to get through one bottle every one to two weeks under normal working conditions.
Can this be used to refill a smaller pump bottle?
Yes. The 4 litre container is well suited to topping up a smaller desktop or van-mounted pump bottle. This is a practical approach if you need the cleaner in multiple locations on site without buying several separate units.
TIMCO Heavy Duty Hand Cleaner is a water-activated gel formula containing natural citrus oil as the primary degreasing agent and finely ground walnut shell particles as a mechanical abrasive. Moisturisers are blended into the formula to offset the drying effect of frequent washing. The product does not rely on solvents or harsh chemicals for its cleaning action, making it appropriate for repeated use across a working day.
