Okay, USED to use in the lab.

Me too. Latex actually accumulates and concentrates many baddies in the
gloves, increasing your skin exposure. It is advisable to not use latex.
Acklands has nice fitting purple nitrile gloves for 20 bucks a box of
100. They work very well, and you don't have to have black fingers for
a couple of days every time you work on a diesel.
