Harbor Freight has 3-4 kind of gloves; latex, nitrile, vinyl & something else.
Which, if any, don't dissolve with PVC cement? -- A host is a host from coast to & no one will talk to a host that's close........[v].(301) 56-LINUX Unless the host (that isn't close).........................pob 1433 is busy, hung or dead....................................20915-1433 |

That's what that swab in the lid is for. But if you want to protect your hands, slather them with Vaseline. Good Luck! Rich |

If he's going to get it all over his hands anyway, liquid gloves are the ticket.

That generally has some pretty potent solvents in it, probably will eat all of those. It's designed to dissolve plastic, after all. What you need are some chemical handling gloves, last seen at the local hardware store. Not inexpensive but not one-time use, either. Stan |

I wear them when handling various potentially nasty solvents. Of course, I don't know what the "something else" might be, so all bets are off for those. :-) Get some of each, and suspend them by the cuffs while pouring a bit of the solvent into each. Let them hang for a few hours, and come back to see how they held up -- then perhaps try gripping each finger with needle nose pliers and see if that causes a leak or tear. I got my box of Nitrile gloves at a hamfest some years ago. And Latex causes an allergic reaction in some people, which is why the health care field has mostly gone to Nitrile.
