SKINGUARD 24 is applied to the hands and left on. There is no rinse step and no towel. The technical data sheet says only that "SKINGUARD24 helps reduce bacteria on the skin" — that is the claim that appears in a controlled document, and it is the one to build the page on. The all-day-protection and mechanical-lysis language appears only in web marketing copy and is not supported by any label, registration or test data in the sourced documents. The formulation is ethyl alcohol 10-30%, water 60-100%, and 3-7% proprietary non-hazardous ingredients.

NOTEThe only efficacy language in a controlled document is the technical data sheet's "helps reduce bacteria on the skin." No sourced document names an organism, states a contact time, or carries a registration number.
How to use it

Works with
AROMA FOAMA BERRY
pH-balanced foaming hand and body soap. Wash at the sink where there is one; use SKINGUARD 24 at the stations where there is not.
Disinfectant wipes. Wipe the shared touchpoint, then sanitize hands on the way out of the room; the two together close the loop on a high-traffic area.
No registration number, FDA OTC drug monograph reference or NDC number appears in any sourced document. A sanitizer making antimicrobial claims for human skin normally needs an FDA drug listing, not a registration. Get written confirmation of the regulatory status from Share Corp before this page states anything about acceptance.
The SDS signal word is WARNING and the only hazard listed is eye irritation. Eye protection is not required for normal use. It is not classified as a flammable liquid — flash point is above 200 F — so it does not carry the storage restrictions a 70% alcohol gel does. Gloves are advised only when one person is applying it to another.
The Share Corp product page says one spray lasts an entire day. There is no test data, contact time, or duration study in any of the sourced documents to back it up, and the technical data sheet claims only that it "helps reduce bacteria on the skin." Do not put the all-day claim on the page without the supporting study.
It is a lower alcohol product — 10 to 30 percent, against the 60 to 70 percent in a typical gel. It is a liquid, not a gel, and it goes on wet and is rubbed in until dry. Because it is below the flammability threshold, storage and shipping are simpler. What it does not have is a stated organism list or contact time, which a monograph gel does.
Container size, case pack and coverage per application are not published anywhere in the sourced material.
Prevention: "Wash exposed skin that may contact eye thoroughly after handling."
Contains 10-30% ethyl alcohol with a flash point above 200 F, so it is not classified as a flammable liquid, unlike a typical 60-70% alcohol gel sanitizer.
PPE
Eyes: "Eye protection is not required. Avoid contact with eyes."
Skin: "For administered application, please wear appropriate gloves such as latex or latex-free gloves."
Respiratory: if exposure limits are exceeded and inhaled, use a NIOSH approved respirator.
First aid
Eyes. Rinse with water for at least 10 minutes. SDS: rinse cautiously with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses if present and easy to do, continue rinsing; if eye irritation persists, get medical advice.
Skin. Wash with soap and water; remove contaminated clothing.
Ingestion. Do not induce vomiting unless directed by a medical professional.
Inhalation. Move to fresh air; give oxygen if breathing is difficult.
Store upright in a cool place. Avoid excessive load on top. Keep container closed when not in use. Good mechanical ventilation is recommended for large uncontrolled releases.
