<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 1135374, member: 15199"]Although cotton gloves are traditional, I prefer the disposable powder free nitrile gloves from Costco. They are single use, so don't gather dust like cotton gloves. Remember dust is really microscopic quartz with a hardness of 7, well above copper or silver. Cotton is too expensive ( compared to nitrile) to single use and dispose. Washing and drying cotton gloves can also lead to possible contamination. Cotton can absorb salty perspiration from the hands, etc. The nitrile gloves I mentioned have textured fingertips, which I think hold better than the plain cotton gloves.</p><p><br /></p><p>But, it isn't the cool old fashioned expert's look.
