    Whatever the spelling, if one of your little darlings spreads it on a carpet like butter - WD40 is your man for removing it.

    It's a lot more effective than Germanlean on your scabs, but doesn't taste as nice.

    surely this is just an example of a product branding/trademarking itself by bastardising a spelling? 'soothing' and 'cream' put together then changed to help with international trademark registration to 'sudacrem' knowing that people will always pronounce it 'cream'...

    i need out more...or has ray darcy already proved me wrong on this one?

    It's not nearly as efficient as Germanlean tbh.

    One of my lecturers calls it poodocream because of all the poo germs in the tubs that get there from putting it on nappy rash and then sticking your hand in to get more.

    I hope your lecturer lectures in something other than a science subject; Isn't it an antiseptic/disinfectant?

    I see the container mentions "napkin rash", sounding like something you'd get in a cheap restaurant.
