Guide to keeping the grease off your hands while working on your Perkins or Deutz engine or transmission.
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.
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 or other chemicals consider buying vinyl or other gloves which are resistant to chemicals. If you want a more rugged leather palm, e.g. for working on manifolds, and more freedom of movement because of the exposed fingers, you could even try an old pair of handball gloves. The point is, by protecting your hands you can help keep them clean. It will also let you go to the office on Mondays without a lot of comments from your colleagues.
