Disposable gloves for disposable oil........

[Fallon]

I've taken to using the cheap cloth gloves with the palm side covered with some kind of rubber/vinyl. The palm side is oil & grease proof while the back side can breathe. The cheap ones are a bit thicker than the yellow kitchen sink type gloves with the layer of cloth & vinyl. No issues pulling them off or trapping sweat in like the disposable ones.

I bought this pair of Liberty gloves 3 days ago in the first link, and they already showed up, that was fast but they went down $.50 now. I used them two years ago and seem to hold up good, I use the old link I posted and they was still on ebay. they'er not as pretty as those green gloves in a previous post link, might try them next time, but that will be a while because for some strange reason they sent me two boxes, must be my lucky day.......... Oh and thanks for posting links.

These are 10 times better than the HF nitrile gloves.

Those are twice as much on ebay, guess Wally world is the place to buy those....

I just recently found a solution to the "sticker glove / sweaty hand" syndrome..... I used my little air nozzle tip just under the glove cuff, shoot a couple of blasts .... Blows the glove up like a balloon and my hand comes right out! (A few times blew it across the shop). I was doing a project where I was staining only a couple of pieces of wood, cutting the next pieces and staining, etc... I would have gone though a dozen pairs. After trying the air nozzle, only used one more pair.

I can actually use the air to help getting the "wet" gloves back on fairly easy. Give it a try!

I will sounds like that might work, let's see blow into the glove and not the skin, think I can remember those complicated instructions........

COSTCO . Nitrile exam gloves. Something about latex rubber or the powder makes my hands break out. I've used them for over ten years. Gone thru a box and a half - 150 gloves/box. Only ripped a couple when putting them on. Hands were too damp - gloves stuck and ripped.

I will usually put two gloves on each hand. Especially when greasing the tractor. Exam gloves aren't exactly designed for tough work. Doubled up will last thru the entire job.

I made the mistake of buying 5mil, 7mil, and 9mil nitrile gloves from HF. Price is right. Now I have a hard decision (not quite like a woman) of what to wear! :laughing:

Latex allergies are uncommon but not super rare. I'd bet on a latex allergy over an allergy to the powder. Use to be talcum powder, but it seems they are finding it's a little safer than asbestos, which isnt the safety bar you want them using for stuff you often inhale.
