I used to use the blue nitrile gloves but was recently given a box of black gloves.They seem to tear less easily. However I agree with an earlier post about tearing them too easily. At first I did but after a while I got used to it. I will put on a pair and if I have to grab a phone or something I will wash them with my shop hand soap and dry them. The better gloves can last through most jobs if your careful. Also years ago I saw an old black and white film of production in the engine build are at porsche.......they wore gloves ( do not know what material though )

And the builders are Knights... (bad pun, I know).

I also wear them when working with Krazy Glue where I know it will come past the edges. There's little worse than being stuck to something you were trying to repair...except maybe that annoying little "I told you so" from the better half.
