Yep, that's the one, it's really good stuff.
My hands in the winter used to get so bad it was like sores all over my hands, this stuff stopped it, mainly use in winter tbh as it builds up protection as well, don't really have a problem in the summer.

Rufty-tufty bikers discussing the merits of hand cream and not one word on whether or not it smells nice. What is the world coming too?

Service 36 tonne thrusters from oil rig support vessels that had been at sea for years. the stuff that comes out when you crack open the castings is SO disgusting. Oil and sea water that has been heated over and over again. not nice stuff. And being big, there is a lot comes out of it.

Also worked as a plate fitter for the same dockyard - that too was pretty mucky sweaty work!

Body shutz.

Basically it is a can of liquid rubber and the gun is a simple venturi that sucks the rubber out and you spray under cars.

However, if the end of the gun touches anything, the air instead pressurises the can and it goes bang spraying liquid rubber all over the vehicle, the operator and the workshop.

You only ever do it once.

I worked in a butchers shop for a few weeks, didn't last. Final straw was pulling one of the big wooden blocks away from the wall and finding masses of maggots and scraps of rotten meat behind there. Probably hadn't been cleaned for months.

removing tiles from plaster board wall, should have just pulled the walls down would have been easier than trying to preserve the plaster board

OK so it wasnt messy per say, but the smell was completely rancid.

Fizz, that is just Bridgewater I am afraid! That place has stunk since the start of the industrial revolution. Some one tried to tell me that it was the Cellophane factory, but even after it closed, Bridgewater air still tasted like a large flatulent gentleman has farted in your mouth!
