The picture of this item as a plastic container labeled Lava Orange does not correspond to item offered for sale. A bar of Lava soap (solid) is offered for sale. A liquid form of Lava is not offered despite the picture implying otherwise. Lava as a soap or liquid is superior for its properties in cleaning off organic adhesives. So when you perform jobs where your hands or skin get dirty from adhesives involved in holding tiles in bathroom, grease from car, or adhesive applied to floor tiles, this product helps to clean it off whereas ordinary soap is not effective. Substances that are sticky, guey, greasy, and oily can be effectively cleaned through use of this product.
Buy Lava 10185 Heavy-Duty Hand Cleaner with Moisturizers, 5.75 oz. Now
Lava has been known as the hand soap for men who got their hands dirty. It was a product originally marketed to coal miners and oil-rig workers since 1893. UNTIL RECENTLY.
Ordinarily we use "Lava Heavy-Duty [pump-action] Hand Cleaner with Moisturizers, 7.5 fl oz", but when it runs out before we are going to the store, [we live 20 miles from any real shopping] we break out a bar of this stuff. The "Lava Heavy-Duty Hand Cleaner with Moisturizers" bar is much milder than the original bar product as the moisturizers really seem to lubricate our skin. We then avoid the abrasion we would be subjecting ourselves to had we just rubbed pumice soap against our faces. So we get the cleaning power of lava without the rough scraping, making this lava an excellent all-purpose soap.
When we do get out to shop, we buy another lava pump with moisturizers and another bar or two of this stuff if we used our last and we are set for another month.

Lava is a must have for removing grease and hard to remove material from ones hands. No mechanic should be without this product. The pumice powered hand cleaner makes quick work cleaning extremely dirty hands. As a bonus, there are emolients in the soap that leave ones hands feeling great. I have used this product for nigh on fourty years with zero complaints. From grease to soil to tar to whatever, it does the job quickly and perfectly. Combine Lava soap with Goop cleaner and absolutely nothing stands a chance of staying on your hands. Highly recommended!

In the past when I came across poison ivy and knew it had touched my skin, I stopped whatever I was doing, went inside, and scrubbed with Pumice-Power Lava Soap.
You can see right there on the product package--a volcano. Pumice comes from the lava produced by volcanoes, directly providing the name of the soap. Pumice evidently lightly abraids poison ivy's resin trying to burn blisters into my extremely sensitive skin. After all, in a spa or other beauty agency, pumice stones are used to rub off that ugly, excess skin that congregates on one's feet. So imagine a soap bar as a pumice stone, which it is, in a way.
Another product has been recommended to me as a cleanser of poison ivy/oak residue--Dial #04303 5.5oz Fels-Naptha Bar, but I have since learned that it contains mineral spirits, a damaging skin ingredient.
As for a foul-mouth cleaning product, I recommend Ivory Bar Soap, Original 3.1 Oz, 3 Pack. If it doesn't burn eyes, then it won't burn a mouth, at least no more than those words did. I'm living to tell about it.
Back to Lava Soap. I keep two soap dishes at my bathroom sink--one for a mild hand soap and one for my handy Lava Soap. I feel perfectly safe in using this cleanser. It contains pumice--a nice abrasive, and is made by WD-40 Company, maker of one of the best known lubricants, probably in the world. Pumice and lubricant--a great combination in ridding one of grease, grime, and poison ivy resin.
I wonder how Lava would be for de-fouling?
I work on cars. I use handcleaner for really tough grease and then Lava. For most grease and grime, however, I go right to the Lava bar!
The bandages came exactly as descried. Hold their stickyness rather well. They can be tricky to apply the first few times that you use them due to them having 2 sides to "peel" before sticking. Not the greatest for finger cuts. They are virtually invisible other than the bandage portion. They stand up to water rather well, but the "invisible" portions of the bandage are extremely thin. Went through a few of them the first few times trying to cover a finger cut. Also, they're rather stretchy once applied which is nice.
