Just my $0.42,

I tried the Tech-Nu when I was covered head-to-toe 'bout 6 years ago after clearing my girlfriend's fence line, didn't do much for me (but this was a few days after contact). It's amazing how a chainsaw & line trimmer can spray the oil. The oil will get on dogs, seats, clothing, etc. and "keep on giving", but ya can't spread it by scratching after the fact like my mom use to admonish
. Same with hot showers several days after...not gonna spread it, just soothing relief.
