Well, I've been using them for a few years now (ever since I got that job
in the hospital <g>).  I've tried about 2 dozen types (Purchasing likes
trying new gloves out) and by far, my favorites are "Diamond Grip" by
Microflex.  800-876-6866.  They are much stronger than average and have a
random, textured pattern on the fingers.  Excellent sensitivity.  If latex
isn't your thing; allergic or just too weak a membrane, go for nitrile
gloves.  Much stronger than latex, although a little pricier - but still
worth it to avoid the "clean under the fingernails and scrape a couple
layers of skin off" post-fix game.

I've used the liquid glove stuff as well.  I find it works much better if
you put some in the palm of your hand and rub your fingernails into the
puddle first.
