Latex Sensativity is common in people who wear Latex gloves for long periods. ie Surgeons etc.
If you have this look for nitrile gloves, they are often blue or violet in colour. More expensve but better.
I always buy mine from a motor factor, where they are much cheaper than in the local Half Fords, or the bling boy racer types of motorist shops.
I also use my wifes Vasseline Intensive Care hand cream after washing, it puts back some of the natural oils lost through agressive washing / swarfega
etc. Better still in the nice one with Aloe Vera in it.. (light blue Container)
Buy your swarfega (or whatever) from motor factors in a 25 litre tub, its much cheaper!.
Thats my 2d worth..
Just finished in the shed for the day, written up my list of bits for Detling toomorrow.
Will be wearing a dark Blue Locost T shirt.
I'm a Fat bearded git, so if you see me, stop and hurl some abuse my way, as I will be on my own and I get lonely
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Can't say as I've ever worn gloves in the garage. Could be I had some rubbish ones, but I found they made things really difficult. It does
make getting clean fiddily, but fairy washing up stuff always brings the years old engine filth off my hands. Mostly. Anyway, since I'm part
mechanic, i'm expected to have oily hands. The missus would be all disappointed if I came in clean.

I try not to get my hands dirty at all. That way, I can usually get them clean with Dove handwash.
Work?......... I love it. I could watch it all day..

i use rubber gloves, and change them as often as they tear, sometimes 4 pairs a night. I dont have any thick gloves, and dont use them for welding
either. The smell of burnt hair and flesh just becomes a background aroma
