What type of gloves?

Hi,

I am curious to what type/brand of gloves folks are using.  I’ve re-watched the “Introducing the Form 1” video and notice clear gloves.  I’ve tried looking for them on Amazon without success.  Anyone has any recommendations?

Thanks in advance,

-Will

You will find that Nitrile rubber gloves will work fine with IPA.  They tend to be blue in appearance.  I use them while handling Acetone, IPA, and Petroleum Distillates to make decals and they are very easy to remove and re-fit so you can use them over and over till they split

Thanks Nigel for the info and extra insight. Thought I might have to buy a LOT too but reusing them for these light-duty stuff seems much more reasonable.

Hey Will,

I use the gloves that Nigel suggested since they are cheaper. In our video and around the office we use Dynarex Safetouch gloves.

Sweet…Thanks for the info and link Jory!!!  At least I have the name/type of gloves I saw from the video.  Learned something new today. :slight_smile:

Another tip, make sure you look for gloves that are “powder-free.” I made the mistake of using powdered latex gloves I since I couldn’t find my nitrile gloves (I didn’t realize they were powdered) and got a little powder in my resin and on my build platform. It hasn’t affected my prints, but it was a small mess that I could have easily avoided. Doh!

I use the Nitrile gloves now. :3
