I never use gloves because I like to feel everything i am doing. But the only thing I would use gloves are to not bust up mu hands. But a cheater bar is so much better!! =)

When your done working If you have a can of brake cleaner/parts cleaner spray your hands down with that. It will get your hands clean enough then you scrub them when you get home and they will be clean. =)

I think they were like $30 from the Snap-on guy.
Barry, are these any good? I've never heard of them before but they look like a great idea. I had a look at the links you provided but they're not really good pics.

I love them, the ones I purchased had the fingers cut out. I opt these so I can feel if I need too. Kinda wish I got the ones that had the fingers in it, but these are really nice!
