Fast Orange. Oh, and invest in a small stiff bristle brush for the fingers.

Also, Honda Brake Cleaner does good..

Lava for the light stuff, agent...er...fast Orange for the rest. Then there are the exfoliators, moisturizers, etc., but that's another post

I use gunk. It's probably not the most eco friendly but it works great. I'll probably swith to the orange stff when I run out, but that's not going to be for a long time because I've got the industrial size Gunk from Costco.

Gee... my car is so clean, I really don't get my hands dirty when I wrench it.

Oh, and Mechanix gloves keep my hands clean, anyway.

HAHA. My Craftsman gloves have so much transmission fluid and motor oil soaked in to them that they actually make my hands dirty.
