Yes, a decent garlic press with squeeze out the cloves and leave the skin
behind. I use my garlic press at least one a week. When I am making a
marinate and need to get the garlic into small pieces and as much of that
flavoured juice as possible I just pop a clove into the press and squeeze.
It's a lot easier to pop the old skin out of the press than it is to peel
the clove and then cut it up.
