I hated the thought of wearing gloves - can't feel what's going on, y'know?

Then a mechanc friend told me I was missing a good bet and scrubbing off a lot of skin, by being so stiff-necked.

Now I am a glove user. Quickest and cheapest for me are the vinyl gloves I get at a nearby ACE hareware store. 100 in a box for $8 or so. They carry S, M, L, XL, I found the M size is a fit. Right size doesn't leave a little bit loose over the fingertip.

They are no use to me when pulling the oil filter. A little oil on the filter and I cannot grip hard enough to keep the filter from slipping to upside down and dumping the oil all over the motor mount and more. They are cheap enough to use several on a job if one gets ripped.

I found a way to pull them off and then re-install after a potty break.

Good Luck,

Bob
