Mechanic's Gloves

May 26, 2004 2 Replies

What do people recommend for:


- mechanic's gloves



- nitrile gloves for parts washers/oily stuff?



Thanks!


I use both depending on the job at hand.

I use (and abuse!!) the Mechanix Impact II gloves and love them. Lots of protection for the back of your hand when the wrench slips. A little bulky when doing delicate stuff, but overall fantastic protection. I wear out a pair a year, and don't mind spending $40 on them. When i need to work around something really hot i slip on their Kevlar heat sleeves to protect my arms and put the gloves over them.

Super gloves, i recommend them to anyone who likes their hands.
