Default Latex gloves, recommend me some good ones...

Does anyone use good quality latex/nitrile gloves that don't rip virtually as soon as you put them on?

I tried many many different brands and can't find any that are up to the job, I'm after orange ones preferably, Im just getting sick to death of doing mechanical jobs and going through loads of pairs on one job purely because they are crap, I'm not even putting them through that much tbh.

Any help appreciated, non useful posts will be removed.

I know these aren't latex/nitrile but I've found them to be really versatile...thin enough to feel what your doing, comfortable and easily cleaned if they get really filthy, most of the time a quick wipe with a rag with a bit of petrol on and they're ready to go again.

I have wurth one's. They good but don't last that well when using solvents.

Cheers, but I've tried similar ones and prefer the feel of the skin tight latex type, I haven't tried the wurth ones Gav mentioned so I'll give them a go.

I have a pair of long rubber gloves for using chemicals so I just want latex gloves purely for oily stuff.

I use these for lots of things....
http://www.screwfix.com/p/apache-mad...es-large/99866

REALLY grippy so i originally got them for tiling, they have a 1mm think coating that goes over your knuckles too so were a godsend changing wheels on a car (how many times have you hit your knuckles doing that!!)

I now use them at work (removals) and so do 5 other guys there.... only downside is they are 'one size' and i have ape hands so they split inbetween my thumb and forefinger... and if you wear them for too long they start to smell (machine washable though!)

I use these, they're not that strong but they're cheap as chips. Bit like me really.

I totally agree with DanSp, those types of gloves are brilliant! I had some and used them a a lot! Although on mine the rubber was ridged (extra grip but you lose sensitivity)

If you want something throw-away "bodyguards" nitrile gloves are apparently very good, most tattoo artist use them and they're pretty sturdy

I just received a sample... Excellent first impression!!
Just be wary if you search eBay and be sure to include the word 'gloves' in your search :/
