Serious now, please.

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!

You want a chemical resistent glove, that is not resistent to
chemicals?

Surgeons have this problem all the time. They use thin gloves, and
they put on multiple layers.

Put surgical gloves (like a bicycle inner tube) on under your thick
gloves (like the tread on a bicycle tire). Won't be perfect, but will
be better.

You don't say how you damaged them but it can be helpful if you keep
your nails short. No rubber gloves are expected to last
indefinetely. Just buy two pair. When one fails you will always have
the other pair. Then, next time you go out buy one pair. That way
you will always have a replacement. If you want to be really cheap
then replace only the damaged one and continue using the one thats
undamaged.

Never put sharp knives in the washing up bowl. It is dangerous. Keep
them outside the bowl and be careful when washing them!

Why wear gloves at all - washing-up liquid's not *that* harmful to the skin.
At least if you cut your hands instead of the gloves, nature will repair
them!g

[That was my mother's logic for sending me out in short trousers when I was
a kid, anyway - skin would re-grow on knees, but cloth wouldn't mend
itself!]

Try Glovelies they are, strong, not expensive and good enough for washing
up, and mucky jobs.

Get different gloves!

They make gloves for welders, mountain climbers, deep-sea divers,
astronauts, and other abusive conditions - you should be able to find
something that would work with Palmolive!

Try Harbor Freight. They have gloves with leather tips and all sorts of
permutations. Some as low as 99 cents a pair.

Here's a crazy idea: Learn to wash sharp knives like a smart person. This is
not rocket science. I'd explain it, but if you can't figure it out for
yourself, I doubt it would help.

Buy a box of disposable *nitrile* rubber gloves,like surgical gloves,except
NOT latex.
You can get them at Harbor Freight,Wal-Mart,auto parts stores.....

I use them to work on my auto.They're tough.
You can even get heavy-duty versions.

years ago I used alcohol as a cleaner at work in bare hands, tough on

When it got bad I would lather my hands with cream, put on those
rubber gloves at bedtime. uncomfy but you get used to it, better than
bleeding hands.

I dont use goves for much of anything

your a woman and you can't wash up ?

are you some sort of idiot !

If you don't want to let the water touch your skin, might I suggest papier
mache gloves. I am quite adept at making various objects from papier mache,
it would be my pleasure to fashion you a pair of sturdy kitchen helpers.

If you would like a pair then please email me a recent photograph of your
hands. If you decide that you don't want the gloves, could you please email
me a photograph of your hands anyway?

Thanks

Tear-resistance might be something some gloves sacrifce in order to
get chemical resistance. I think any rubber glove is resisstant to
soap and water.
