The liquid gloves stuff is basically just hand lotion. The idea is if =
you saturate the skin with lotion, it won=E2=80=99t absorb oil and dirt. =
It works up to a point =E2=80=94 as soon as you get into solvents, they =
dissolve the lotion and you=E2=80=99re back to square one.

I=E2=80=99ve been buying the boxes of 100 nitrile gloves, so I can just =
burn through as many as needed. I reuse them, if I haven=E2=80=99t =
managed to puncture them. Sometimes I tear one inside 5 minutes.

The one thing you can=E2=80=99t do with gloves on is start small fine =
thread nuts, especially when working blind (like behind the dash). So =
soap is still relevant.
