Not so good a combination!

Today I was doing a PM service on a bus at work (school) and as I spun off the first fuel filter, of course diesel leaked out . . . I did not worry as I had on some latex gloves . . . as I was putting on the new filter, I noticed that the gloves were s t r e t c h i n g I quickly pulled them off, but not before they failed . . . Latex is not the best thing to make gloves out of for working around diesel!

Tomorrow I have another bus to do, and I will bring my Nitrile gloves, I know they hold up to gasoline . . . They should do fine with diesel

I have some vinyl gloves that I used when I had a bakery, they work great using the cleaning agent for our printing press, I can try them on the diesel too . . .

Don't buy latex to work with diesel, beside they have a nasty odor! (to me anyways!)
