How Does MAN-O Protective Hand Cream Work?
When MAN-O is applied to the skin, it forms an invisible protectant, much like a glove. This cream resists most solvents, grease, grime, dyes, adhesives and many other compounds which can harm or stain the skin. MAN-O 'does not block the pores, nor prevent perspiration. Applied before working, MAN-O's protection lasts for 3 to 4 hours. It is easily removed with soap and water, carrying dirt, grease and stains with it.

According to the Bureau of Workers’ Compensation:
40% of all work related claims involve exposed skin
95% of that number involves contact dermatitis
68% of them involve hands and upper extremity
25% will miss 10 – 12 work days a year
There are two basic uses for MAN-O. The first is to protect the skin from harmful compounds which cause dermatitis or an inflammation of the skin. These compounds usually damage the skin by removing natural oils or by blocking the openings in the skin. (Occupational dermatitis is the largest industrial disease in this country, costing industry over $200,000,000 annually. Thousands of manufacturers have problems with occupational dermatitis and have never tried a protective cream!)
The second use for MAN-O is potentially larger than the first. MAN-O speeds cleanup by taking dirt and stains with it when it is removed with soap and water, What happens When MAN-O is not used is the essential oils of the skin must be removed in order to remove the dirt. This "defatting" of the skin by soaps, detergents and waterless cleaners is a. leading cause of dermatitis.
