Rubber glove hack you're going to love.

Phew, I was worried it was gonna be the glove hack that uses a pringles can and sponges!

I wore Nitrile gloves at crime scenes and the morgue. I wear them in my garage when working with grease and chemicals in the shop and while spraying the lawn.

I would wear them in the rain, I would wear them on a plane.

Nitrile gloves are the ones I use also.... they are reasonable quality - although it's hard-to-get man-sized ones.

I'm not a huge man but yeah....I need XL gloves or I'm fighting to get them on. I sure don't like the feeling of my circulation being squeezed.

To me it feels arthritic if the rubber is too tight.

Looks like I need a re-test.

Thought I'd jump on in there before @Photon440 does.

Lots of guys at work would clean tools using MEK and other chems.......well, most of them are no longer with us. I remember one guy complaining about the solvent in the wash vat burning his hands. 'Use the gloves you dummy' I told him. Your skin absorbs the stuff if some of y'all don't realize that.

Not familiar with that one....and if it's what I think it might be, I don't want to be familiar with it!

No, something we had made up. Our car club had the steel blanks and our Vinyl lettering guy made the image. We used them for car show trophies. We were just having fun with this one.

I see people recording stuff INSTEAD OF WATCHING IT WHILE IT HAPPENS and I think they are dipshits. No phone recording is ever going to look as good as watching it live in front of you.

I made a similar mistake when my Mom and I visited Washington DC. I focused ti much on capturing the moment in photos. I should have been enjoying her company more while taking in the sites.

We have Harbor Freight for that.

I like that split second when he gives the glove a look.....you can almost hear him thinking..." its still gonna be a bitch to peel it back off" lol.

IF the gloves ain't dirty, I'll lift up the edge at the palm and give it a good puff. It just about blows it off. I hate them too but for some things, they work pretty good. A buddy of mine gave me a couple pair of Grease Monkey gloves. At first, I thought junk gloves but they ended up being pretty durable. They are a general purpose glove and are good for yard work many other things. I'm always doing something out in the yard and shop so my hands are dirty a lot and after several washings during the course of the day, my hands get pretty dried out and wearing gloves sure helps with that problem it helps them not become full of snags. The wife doesn't like her slinky stuff getting snags either from rough hands

If the gloves don’t fit….you must acquit

Those are some crazy looking squirrels!

European. I like the tassels.

Do they act as crazy as they look? Was feeding the squirrels here but it seems that the neighbors shooting them have succeeded in trimming the herd. Had one that used to come into the shop if there wasn't anything to eat under the carport. Another one that I named Slash because she had a slash in her ear. A few months later she showed up after being absent for a time with a broken tail. Didn't slow her down much if any. She doesn't show up anymore either.

I think they pretty behave the same.
