Like a soap, I'm not really sure if it is a soap. It is a hand cleaner often found in mechanic shops or anywhere someone might be working with grease and oil. I can't find who makes it right now, but you can probably find it in any hardware store. Usually costs about $2 for a large tub of it. It contains Lanolin so it doesn't dry your hands. It works better than normal soaps. This stuff rocks.
