Porter’s Liniment Salve was formulated in 1916 in Piqua, Ohio, by the George H. Rundle Company. The salve was sold door-to-door by traveling salesmen for many years. There has been no formal advertising for Porter’s Salve. Sales have been generated mostly by word of mouth, from satisfied customers telling others of Porter’s Salve’s soothing, healing properties. The original name was changed from Porter’s Pain King Salve to its current name, due to a request from the FDA. The reference to liniment was made because this salve was formulated from the Porter’s original product, liquid Porter’s Liniment.
Recommended as a “beneficial application for bruises, rough and cracked skin caused by inclement weather, insect bites, sunburn and local irritations,” it is advocated for use on both man and beast alike. The salve has a drawing quality, which works particularly well on slivers of metal, wood, or glass, beneath the surface of the skin.
This product, not highly advertised other than by word-of-mouth, has gained attention throughout the United States, Canada, and many countries abroad. Known for its healing powers, Porter’s Liniment Salve, gets new customers by recommendations of satisfied users.
For many year’s Porter’s was marketed in Canada as Rundle’s Salve. Whether your tin says Rundle’s or Porter’s, its the exact same magical stuff and it has been since 1916.

My grandparents ALWAYS had a tin of Porters Salve on hand as did my mother.
I’ve carried that tradition & now our son has a tin of the product.
We travel with it so we’re prepared for those cuts, scraps. etc.
The old saying ” if it’s not broke don’t fix it” applies to this AWESOME product.
We don’t leave without it.

Porters salve has been a go to for my family for 60+ years. I use to speed the healing of cuts, scrapes, and acne blemishes. Most importantly for me is the instant pain relief and speedy healing of my dry, torn, or cut cuticles. I won’t be without Porters salve.

Porters Products have been a part of my life since I can remember. My father used the salve or liniment until the day he passed away (94 years). Our neighbors would come to dad if they had a problem. He would put the salve, and bandage on the sore or cut. When I got married and moved away. He gave me a tin to take with us. I have done the same with my kids. They use the salve. I just gave my neighbor a tin. I had given him some for a sore he had on his neck. It solved his problem, and he wanted more. My dad would have done the same!

Love the product! I know of 5 generations that have used the salve in our family. This product works fantastic on burns, cuts and scrapes. My niece is recently married and just had a baby and I have given her a tin for her family. Matter of fact, my mother burned her arm this past Thanksgiving on the turkey pan and I put that on it and bandaged it up and it hardly left a scar at all, also healed it faster than the standard medications. When I order, I always order a case because everybody wants it. Highly recommend this product to anyone.

My daughter told me about Porters a while back. She said the chicken catchers used it to clear their sores up. My husband became disabled and had the rashes etc. from being in wet diapers. Put Porters on him and he would be clear by the next day. He’s in a nursing home now and have tried to tell their staff about it but since a doctor hasn’t prescribed it they don’t believe me. Had to show them it worked.

I was raised on Porter’s, we lived on a farm and my dad swore by it. Recently my son developed a boil and ask if I had any Porter’s. He remembered his grandpa used it. I gave him what I had and ordered one for me and one for him. It made a great Christmas present and brough back a lot of memories from both our childhoods.

Been using porter’s for over 50 years.My husband started using it when he was a mear cutter.little nicks and cuts would lead to infections from raw meat. No problem with porter’s. Iyse to teach food and nutrition to 4-h groups.one young lady had a hang nailand said it really hurt, put porter’s on it and a bandaid and told her not to take it off till morning.Next day she said it didn’t hurt and that I was better than her Dad. He was a doctor. When my son was little he was always calling, GET MR.PORTERS.for scrapes and bruises.My grandchildren always want it, even for mosquito bites. Porter’s is a way of life at our house.I can’t begin to tell you how many cans I’ve given away and told people to try it. They always come back with, where can I buy this. Fantastic product!!!!!

We are into the 5th generation of using Porter’s (Pain King salve as I knew it growing up). I grew up on a dairy farm and this was not only used on the humans but the livestock too. It heals wounds and is a great drawing salve for splinters. My personal best story is I cut the end of 2 toes with a push mower when I was about 12 y/o my father was so mad he refused to call the family doctor and back then you didn’t go to the ER, so twice a day I soaked my toes in peroxide and then put the ointment on and bandaged them, they healed nicely (not that I am recommending everyone doing something like this without seeing a physician) but I swear by the product as does the rest of my family, we all have tins of it in our houses, barns, campers and horse trailers. So happy the product is still available not sure what our go to would possibly be if it weren’t.

Oh my, years ago I moved to an area that had small black flies that would bite like crazy. I would welt up, they would get hot and I would scratch so bad I almost caused infections. My friends mom saw this and gave me a tin of Porters, TOTAL game changer; cleared up the bites. Worked so well I tried it on a rash that I suffered from all my life, used it 3 times a day and it disappeared never to return. LOVE this stuff

I can’t remember when Porters salve wasn’t a part of my life .As a young child at my grandfathers general store I learned about Porters when I cut my foot on glass. My grandmother got the porters and a band aid. She took care of my foot and I thought the smell was horrible. My Grandfather, Thomas Huffman, owned a general store in Emison, Indiana. He carried porters in his store along with about everything else you could imagine. We visited every summer and at Christmas. My sister and I always looked forward to checking out his candy case where we could get a sack full of candy for a nickel. My mind carries me back there in his store and always to porters salve. My grandmother started us on porters, my mom continued to keep porters all my life. She would order salve and send it to each of her 4 children. We were raised to believe that as long as you had porters and a band aid or bandage everything was alright. I have continued to do the same with my children and grandchildren and great grandchildren. Thanksgiving all my crew was here and one of the great grandchildren had a finger nail to split but she would not let anyone touch it and was crying. I took her little hand and told her come with me. Mimi has a secret remedy. Tears were streaming down her face. She came with me to the bathroom where I got out a band aid and my secret (porters), Well, she would not let me touch the nail but she let me put porters on it with a q tip and a band aid, Tears dried up when I offered her an extra band aid and some of my secret to take home. This child is 4 years old and a foster child of my grandson and his wife, She found out really quick how good my secret was but told my grandson that Mimi’s secret fixed the hurt finger but sure did smell stinky. So you see she was already learning the tradition my grandmother began many years ago. I am 75 and learned about porters probably the age of this child. We have kept the tradition alive and well. I just received an order for 2 tins of porters yesterday. One for me and one for my brother. I have one sister and one brother living and all three of us have children and grandchildren and grands that we are teaching about porters. I don’t think I could live without it. I have used it for so many different injuries and burns and it never fails to heal us right up. Funny how Maria thought mimi’s secret was stinky because I love the smell and the memories of a life time when I get it out to use. It is by far the best there is to use on cuts. scrapes, skinned knees, shins or whatever, Nothing beats it .I am so thankful my grandmother used it on my cut so many years ago. It is the best product on the market and as long as I am living it will be a necessity for us. This all started in a little town in Emison, Indiana at an old general store and has been carried wherever we lived. I am in a little town in northeast Alabama, my brother lives in Monteagle, Tn and my sister is in Poteau, Ok so we are spread out. Thank you to Porters Salve for many years of comfort to the Huffmans, Owens, Whigham families and all those we have shared our porters with. Thank you for responding so quickly to my email. I think the order form I found in my file was 20 or 25 years old. Again, thank you so much Porters. We love it!!!!!!The porters salve gets rated a perfect 10 Five stars

My great grandfather, Bunie Franklin Porter, first moved to Kentucky as a salesman of this product. My grandfather, Lewis Porter used it his entire life, as well as our whole family. It is a great topical pain reliever and it pulls out infection, and has genuine healing properties. I applied to small cuts or insect bites to relieve pain and heal. I love this product and will always have it in my home and pass on the tradition of using it. My grandfather was smart and his use of this product was inspired by him because that man knew almost everything.

This product has been loved and passed down from when my great grandfather sold it door to door when he moved to Kentucky. It’s pain relieving and healing qualities can’t be beat. I’m not sure of the ingredient that creates the tiny crystals inside the salve, but it works and I will pass the tradition on of its use. This product will always be in my home for minor cuts and insect bites. It’s odd smell is aesthetically pleasing to me as it reminds me of my grandfather.

Every time I use your product it brings back such fond memories. I can still hear my Grandmother (Meme) calling it Pain King Salve. She treated every cut, scrap, bee sting, you name it with the salve, so much so that everyone in my family as well as everyone I have introduced it to, calls it Meme’s salve.

I grew up using Porter’s salve. When my kids were younger they both had a bad reaction to the stuff in diapers and they got red bottoms bad. Put Porter’s on it and left them bottom less in the crib and they cleared up in no time. They now use it on there kids for everything. They complain about the smell and I would tell them that it’s working that’s why it smells.

You’ve often heard, ‘they just don’t make things like they use to’. In our ‘throw-away’ culture, I believe that’s true. Fortunately, they are still making Porter’s Liniment Salve using the same ingredients that my grandmother used as long as I can remember. It works! This salve is almost like magic and practically heals overnight. It cost more now, of course, but I think it’s worth it. I even like the way it smells!

We love Porters! My kids call it boo boo medicine. My grandparents and my Great Grandparents used it for everything you can think of. Tonight I put it on an ingrown hair before bed and I’m confident it will clear it up, just like it has clears up cuts bruises and burns, insect bites and abscesses, as well as saving my grandpas finger when it was badly cut in a machining accident. Besides being amazing, the tin oats FOREVER! I literally can not remember a time in my life or my children’s we didn’t not have our trusted green and white tin of good-smelling boo-boo medicine! Thank you Porters for remaining consistently affordable and amazing.

My sisters and I have always had Porter’s salve to use growing up. It is a true miracle ointment that I still use. It takes away any soreness or pain you have. I have been using it for 50 years now.
