REVIEW: EDGE Scrubber Daddy

[shadybreal]

If you’re like me your hands tend to get a little dirty even w/ the use of latex gloves while detailing. During the winter months, my hands even get really dry and cracked from different chemicals and climate. My hands especially get dirty and oily when using some of the different tire and trim dressings. Combine this oily mess with the cracked skin on my fingers, you get stained fingers that are tough to get clean even w/ the best of cleaners.

Well after attending the recent Detail Fest, I was fortunate to meeting Aaron and John from Dedication to Detail, the founding company of Edge pads and the Shmitt. I noticed a different looking pad on the display table w/ two small holes in the middle and a jagged edge on one end. I asked John what it was and he explained to me that it was one of their latest projects called the Scrubber Daddy. It’s specifically made for people like us and mechanics or anybody w/ dirty hands. This new product makes cleaning you hands extremely easy. All you have to do is put two fingers in the Scrubber Daddy and add some soap and water and begin scrubbing.

The end results are clean hands w/ no trace of oil, dirty, etc. anywhere to be found. It’s amazing how the guys from Edge we’re able to come up such a simple device that works so well.

Good job you guys, and thanks for the Scrubber Daddy!

Don't get me wrong, I really like Edge products, but I'm a bit skeptical on how well this product would work on really dirty hands. As an aircraft mechanic in the military, my hands get coated with all sorts of chemicals, grease, dirt, and grime. Honestly, if I could get my hands to look like your hands do in the first two pictures, I would consider them pretty clean. I have only found two products(actually the same thing, just different brands) that will remove the majority of the filth that is on my hands/arms/neck/face after a rough day of work. From what you've posted, this product looks great for light to moderate cleaning, but I'm not sure it would hold up to excessive amounts of grime that my hands come in contact with.

***I have not tested this product and can only make a comment based on the sample pictures provided.

Like you I was a skeptical too, but after trying it I think it would work really well in conjunction w/ a good hand cleaner liquid or jelly. The best thing about the product is the two holes for you fingers. They really help you get a firm grip for the required scrubbing.

how stiff is that foam?

When I said my hands get dirty, I mean they get really dirty. Liquid cleaners such as Cherry Bomb and GoJo Gold don't even come close to cutting it. I have to use a paste of sorts(comes in a paste form and you get your hands wet to wash with the paste) that literally leaves my hands a bit raw after the rough scrubbing that is required. It's really like using liquid sandpaper with how abrasive it is. I would be more than happy to test out this product if given the opportunity.

Yeah, I would say my hands are a lot dirtier than that everyday, but I rarely wear gloves. I rarely wore gloves when I worked as a mechanic for 10 hours a day, and those were dirty hands. Nothing but the gritty hand cleaner and one of the really course finger nail brushes would get the grime out.

My review of this product should be coming in the next week or so. Just to give you an example of what it will be up against, I took a couple of pictures of what my hands look like after an average day of work. These pictures show my hands after about 3 hours of work and they have been wiped off with a rag to remove loose dirt/grime. When I do my review, I will try to get pictures and results from multiple stages of filth. I am really looking forward to giving a fair and honest review of this product. Sorry for the poor quality pictures, they're from my phone.

I'm glad that little amount of Dawn liquid dish detergent is more than enough for me to rub grease and dirt off of my hands/nails with no use of a sponge... But my hands don't get as dirty as Audiboy's :wow:
