Looking for a liquid glove or pre treater for hands to help keep grease and oil from getting into all the cracks and crevices in my hands. Nytril or latex gloves make my hands sweat immensely leaving them like raisins and causing problems. Thanks.

I just slather my hands in lotion before going out to the shop. That seems to really prevent grease and oil from absorbing and sticking. Makes cleanup with dish soap real easy.

any lotion will help. Baby oil helps too. Try a little talc or corn starch in the gloves, it will help. There are also mechanics gloves that breathe, you can buy several sets and wash them as they get dirty.

Bag Balm works too. The only issue with any "liquid glove" is that the tools will have less grab - twisting a screw driver for example or pulling a tight socket off a ratchet.

I use the hand lotion trick
(the cheap stuff works fine)
but I often forget to do it in advance
the good thing is hand lotion works great after the fact as well

wash your hands as normal
apply a bunch of hand lotion and rub it in
you will see it turn grey as it mixes with the dirty grease
wash it off
repeat if needed

Ghost Glove. I have some of it somewhere. Last time I seen it I bought some. Looks just like a clear vinyl glove when it’s applied and then just peels right off. Works great. Just can’t ever find it anymore.

We used to use a lot of PR88 at the plant I used to work at. We dealt with a lot of Carbon Black and Graphite high temp grease plus a lot of other chems. Helped a lot. I got sweaty hands in latex gloves too. Ive also used the glove cream product Trebon (?) made by Stoko but it wasnt as good as the PR88, it was sort of slimy.
