liquid chalk
Climber's hand powder
Liquid chalk is aite powder suspended in alcohol, used by climbers, weightlifters, and gymnasts to improve grip.
The alcohol evaporates when applied, leaving a dry chalk coating on the hands.
Gyms often require liquid chalk because it produces less airborne dust than loose chalk: I keep liquid chalk in my gym bag.
