    Ha yes, well I'm learning quick heh, and that's the point of gloves-I don't want to put my hands on all that. Easier to have gloves. Drop a screw in the condensate pan? Pulling apart and replacing condensate lines and utraps? And all the filth along the way that greasy restaurant kitchens seems to attract-even the clean ones? Gloves for me.

    Them harbor freight 9 mils worked great today. Wondering if the 7 mils would be as effective, though I could probably get multiple day use out of these 9 mils.

    Look up “glove clip” on amazon. Helps me not lose gloves.

    I use the 9 mil for cleaning (oil boiler/furnace), 7 mil for service (anything but sheet metal). One pair per job. Never even tried to take them off and put them back on, especially if they get sweaty.
    If I do a job in 30 minutes it's because I spent 30 years learning how to do that in 30 minutes. You owe me for the years, not the minutes.

    When faced with the choice between changing one's mind, and proving that there is no need to do so, most tend to get busy on the proof.

    Nothing like greasy hands. I hate to work with gloves but sometimes you have no choice.
