Tom,
Maybe. The big question is whether it could get under the skin to do it's
thing. Then again, how would the cleaned protein be washed away? That stuff
is intended to remove hardened protein deposits from a smooth surface
sitting in a fluid bath, so it might not help inside the skin at all. Then
again... Maybe.
