Lava (soap)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lava, commonly known as black soap, is a heavy-duty hand cleaner made by WD-40, first produced in 1893. WD-40 acquired the brand from Procter & Gamble in 1999. Unlike typical hand soaps, Lava contains ground pumice, which gave the soap its name. The soap and pumice combination is intended to scour tar, engine grease, paint, and similar substances from the skin.

Lava soap is available in two forms, a bar (5.75 oz.) and a liquid form (7.5 oz. pump bottle). The liquid form also contains moisturizers and recently the bar form added moisturizers into its formulation as well. The liquid version is also available in an orange scent.
