Anybody use full arm length disposable gloves 200

Somewhat greasy and slimy under the car these days.

Anyone use the full arm length disposable gloves for say, a starter replacement lying on your back under a slightly leaky rear main seal car.

Btw, I use the x-large nitrile from Harbor Freight like water.

    I was thinking of something like the ones that Grainger sells for gynecological evaluations of horses and cows that only seem to come in large.

    Maybe I should post something on the veterinarian BB.

    i've used old socks with small hole for thumb and larger hole for fingers (gloves under). Works well at keeping wrists and forearms clean.

    when I did my starter I chose Playtex dishwashing gloves.

    are these Harbor Freight ones higher up than that.

      the Harbor Freight black HD Nitril gloves are about the best of their kind I have found but they only go about an inch...maybe two past the wrist bone.

      I stopped trying to stay clean all the time. I use the gloves, and even occasionally "chemo" gloves, when working with ugly or really smelly (old hydraulic fluid) chemicals but just working on the car, I prefer mechanics gloves or bare hands + good hand cleaners. 90% of the time that is Dawn original put on the hands "dry" scrubbed in and washed off. 10% it is one of the commercial hand cleaners.

      Amazingly, I use diesel fuel to remove the stench of ancient hydraulic fluid then a long hot soak for clothes in oxyclean to remove the odor and other effects of the diesel fuel.

      FYI, these are Chemo gloves but I get them free from one of our race team members that represents the manufacturer:
