First, I've never used the stuff. However, in my archaeology days I
did a lot of research into the products and their capabilities, mainly
because of an area I was potentially going to be working in.

According to information from the manufacturer, "Liquid Gloves" and
the like form a sweat-resistant and abrasion-resistant barrier, on a
porous level, rather than something like Anchor Seal, which is easily
peeled off.

The products are _made_ for "real work" (protects against concrete
burns for instance) and are available from outdoor and construction
suppliers. While not as readily available as say...a pair of gloves,
if you know your property has poison ivy on it, for instance, or if
you're going to be handling wood that you're allergic to or whatever,
you would likely purchase a bottle of it.
