Do you not get carbon dust on your hands whilst you work day to day? It's the main reason I started wearing them!No we never use gloves ,we do carry nitrile gloves for gutter work if we have to empty by hand but that’s it .
Same. I go through gloves like my nan went through slippers. That's a lot! I have no idea why my nan went through slippers a lot ?I always wear gloves. Yet to find a pair that's lasts...
I do something similar. I carry three types in the van.Got in the van this morning and realised I have three types of gloves with me on the seat all the time.. From left to right cold weather, wet weather, dry weather ???
Does anyone else do this?

wet hands dont cause arthritis....wear and tear or an autoimmune disorder causes it......Those that don’t wear gloves at all do you get arthritis in your hand and fingers ? I never use to wear gloves but do now as wet hands were causing me to lose movement in my fingers.
Yeah we are kinda waterproof ??I do something similar. I carry three types in the van.
Waterproof rubberised for gutter emptying.
Short fingered, lightweight Crewsaver sailing gloves for when it's very cold
Site (Screwfix) working gloves for when it's even colder
I very rarely wear gloves. It has to be bitterly cold. I don't worry too much about wet hands. I'd rather them be wet than sweaty, clammy and smelly. My hands usually only get a little damp anyway as I don't do any wiping down with cloths and they're dry again in moments.
I can't really answer that. I know it's not good to be damp for long periods but I've worked outdoors and kayaked for most of the last forty years, winter and summer, good weather to violent storm force 10 and minus 10c (worked in that, didn’t kayak in it). Very rarely wore gloves.Yeah we are kinda waterproof ??
So true, luckily I had an older head on my shoulders, still done some things that I expect will come back to bite me.I have arthritis in both my knees the doctor said it’s due to laying under cars when I worked in the garage for 16 years , but when you are a teenager older age seems a long way off ??? but it soon catches up with you .
