{"product_id":"old-mate-pumice-hand-scrub","title":"OLD MATE PUMICE HAND SCRUB - Big 1Ltr","description":"\u003ch1 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTen years. Four names. Same scrub.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt started life in 2016 as a mechanics scrub, which was true but too small. Then it was Good Bugger, which retail couldn't cope with. Then True Grit, until we found someone else already had it. Now it's Old Mate, which is what it should have been called from the beginning · because that's who's been buying it all along.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it actually does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNew Zealand milled pumice does the lifting. Grease, oil, paint, soil, fish, diesel, silage, two-pot, the stuff that laughs at ordinary soap. It goes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe difference is what's underneath the pumice. Most heavy-duty hand cleaners strip your hands and leave them worse than they found them · cracked, dry, splitting at the knuckles come winter. This one is built on our whipped bath butter base: cocoa butter, shea butter, calendula oil and vitamins. So hands come out clean \u003cem\u003eand\u003c\/em\u003e conditioned. Soft enough to cuddle the wife without complaint. Soft enough to tickle the kids without them squealing about it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnd the smell\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eVanilla whisky toffee. On a hand scrub. We know.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt's the thing people mention first in every review · and the reason it gets stolen off the bench by everyone else in the house. Suspiciously delicious, for something that just took engine grease off a set of knuckles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFarmers, tradies, mechanics, gardeners, fishermen, boaties. Anyone who works with their hands and has given up expecting the cleanup to be pleasant. It's on farm sheds and it's on superyachts, which tells you most of what you need to know.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDry hands, no water yet. Scoop a decent amount. Work it in properly · knuckles, nails, the creases. Then add a little water and keep going. Rinse. That's it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOld Mate's Rules\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWash your hands before you sit down. Take your boots off at the door. Say thank you. Buy two · one for the shed, one for the house, because otherwise the house one disappears. And no job too dirty, no hands too rough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eHandmade in New Zealand by us since 2016 · vegan · cruelty free · PETA certified · Buy NZ Made.
