I thought I'd try a pair at Sear's the other day and they lasted exactly half a brake job before I wore a hole through the forefinger and thumb. For $20, I figured they'd last at least a year or two.
Is there a certain brand to get that will actually last? |

I use nitrile gloves from harbor freight, they are like $5 for a set of 100 (pairs? I forget) when on sale. They last a while. They are way more durable than latex and will resist some solvents, although brake cleaner will eat through them eventually.
I have a pair of those mechanics gloves from Sears that someone gave me, but I am scared to use them because I know I will turn them black in no time... |
