Banner ChemicalSmooth-Tex Borax Powdered Hand Soap - Heavy Duty Industrial Hand Wash - Removes Grease, Grime and Oil from Hands for Mechanics & Industrial Workers, Compare to Boraxo - 5 lbs (1 Pack)[Amazon-developed Certification] Compact by Design

If you’re looking for a Boraxo replacement this is it. My husband works hard and this powered hand soap does too. He hadn’t complained about it, so that says a lot! Lol It’s not harsh on his hands. He uses it at a minimum of twice a day. And I actually have used it and it cleans my hands and it has a fine texture and they feel soft after. Also an added bonus it’s not a fake orange scent!!It’s a great quality , it doesn’t take much and the box has lasted a long time. the only negative thing I’d have to say is it’s expensive for what it is. But we will pay the price and order again.

GREAT FOR CLEANING HANDS

I’m a LONG time user of Boraxo powdered hand soap and nothing takes black axle grease off your hands like Boraxo. NOTHING! So I reverted back to the original crème GoJo. It’s fair on black grease but not the best and leaves a slimy film on the sink. So ….. I decided to try this borax powdered hand soap. It ain’t as good as Boraxo but it’ll do. It’s not as gritty and dissolves in water pretty quickly, but does seem to clean my oily hands. So I guess I will recommend it. I still don’t understand why Banner Chemical stopped making Boraxo.

Recently gave this soap a shot to replace Boraxo. It really does the job. Cleaned my dirty greasy hands yesterday after working in the garage and today it outperformed after doing garden work. It's a little different than Boraxo and in some ways better. It's grittier, which works to scrub off the dirt, but it also forms a nice soapy lather. Hands feel very soft and clean after. Will buy again.

I was surprised to find they do not make boraxo anymore! but this is essentially the exact same thing, without the small cylindrical box. Save your boraxo box, and refill it with this stuff

When I use the mechanic hand cleaners that have the gooey orange and pumice ingredients my hands start to swell after weeks of use. Additionally the gooey hand cleaners always leave a greasy dirty residue under and around my nails and in some of the deeper cracks in my hands.Anyway, all that information to just say that this soap really does a better job of removing all the dirt, grease and odor from working all day on engines and cars. I used to buy boraxo soap, but can’t find it anymore, this soap is a great substitute for boraxo.

An OK powdered hand soap to step in where Boraxo left off. However, Boraxo was septic safe, this is not. The first few uses were ok. But not the same. Can feel a difference if powdered hand soap is used regularly. Glad it will be a long time before I need more. And I do not have a septic system.

Ok in the desperate search with all the other mechanics who are looking for the product to replace DIAL’S discontinued Boraxo hand soap . I tried this . One it’s VERY OVER PRICED . Two it has a weird chemical smell that is covered by a lemon fragrance they added to counter that . It does not do the same job as what they claim it’s replacing . It is not anywhere near Original Boraxo . They claim it is I bought it washed with it it’s absolutely not . It’s Ok and you will use lots more to get the result of clean hands by multiple washings . Like twice as much ! Just the facts folks ! It ain’t it . So my search continues . What I clearly dont understand is why DIAL DROPPED THEIR SOAP AND NO ONE PICKED UP THE RIGHTS TO THE FORMULA ? Very frustrating . Go Jo zep cherry blast orange pumice all leave behind a residue and a oily smelly chemical . They will getYou clean but then you have that residue drawing dirt back to your hands from everything you touch so we use dish soap “Dawn” to get off the cleaner chemical that cuts the grease and grime . I just want Boraxo it cut the dirt in two washings no residue no smells the major grime in the first wash then the remains in the second and the hands were clean enough to not have your wife kill you for finger prints in the house !! Keeping it real here . This stuff from Banner will have to suffice for now I guess but it’s still way short of the mark . I’m not spoiled just had a product that worked for decades so I grew used to a standard . Dial setThe bar high . Banner is close but banner if you’re reading this find a way to be the best get that formula and manufacture the real thing please . We’ll pay the big bucks just to keep the quality and standard . It’s like food yeah it’s fortune for steak dinner out but you don’t mind because you know you’re getting the best so you accept it gladly knowing you’re getting what you paid for . Thanks for reading
