When I read the sign for FROMAGER (see attached), I read two hands  
contacting and moving together in the same direction...they are  
stirring somthing in a circle twice. The General Arrowhead is correct  
in that case. It is best to use the Contact Star too, I think....

If the hands RUB, like in COFFEE, the Contact Star is the RUB symbol  
itself, and Touch star is not needed with the RUB symbol...
