Default My hands get wet using my rubber gloves

Hmmm.... Kinky!


I go and get some high-priced super chemical-resistent rubber gloves for
doing the washing up. A few seconds after starting I cut a small hole in
the gloves. What an **** idiot!

Ok, get a dishwasher. Wash sharp knives separately. I know, I know. But
nothing seems to stop them getting holed.

Happens every few days. Am getting sick of this so no I'm going to patch
the nearly-new glove with a hole.

But that's where it gets hard. If I use a self-adhesive repair patch for
a bicycle inner tube (inside and maybe outside too (if the "hole" is
actually more like a small cut) then the hot water.

What sort of adhesive would make a good repair of the glove? Some
adhesives make the the rubber deform (it takes a few days). Would a
contact adhesive resist the heat of the water better? I like the water
hot.

Can anyone help. Am sure there could be lots of crazy replies and that's
ok,. but I also want to fix this!
