Want to work on your engine or transmission over the weekend yet you have 5 patients to see first thing Monday morning? Got a presentation scheduled and you can't show up with grease under your fingernails? Maybe its tax season and you are up for a partnership in your CPA firm?  Consider using gloves when working on your diesel.

Our professionals recommend using an old pair of racquetball gloves. If you want a more rugged leather palm, e.g. for working on manifolds, and more freedom of movement because of the exposed fingers, try an old pair of handball gloves. If it looks like a long, winter project consider buying a 100 pair box of latex gloves. If the project involves a lot of contact with oil consider buying vinyl gloves which are not oil soluble as are the petroleum-based latex gloves. While not as rugged as gloves (the latex or vinyl will tear easily) you can still go to the office on Mondays without a lot of comments from your colleagues.

Although Foley Engines purchases racquetball gloves a gross at a time for our shop people, maybe you don't want to make a trip out to the mall for just a pair of gloves. Hightower Sports (800 358-3566) can probably get a pair of gloves shipped right to your office in time for the weekend.
