Default Nitril gloves

OSHA has really cracked down on the Automotive industry about the use of gloves for people involved in the trade. Most first line auto parts store stock the gloves now. A box is about 8 to 10 dollars and you get fifty pair in the box. A box should last a good long time and like I said in a previous post with the danger that the chemicals, glues and paints we use subjects us to, every modeler out there should be wearing them. You see articles in the magazines all the time about people that have become toxic due to the absorbtion of these chemicals through their skin. The gloves prevent a great deal of the exposure. Cheap protection from some really bad stuff.
