Review on Grease Monkey Nitrile Mechanics Purpose by Carlos Chan

Revainrating 3 out of 5

You can't beat the price, the cover is included with the glove unlike many cheaper ones that don't.

Because the coating fully penetrates the fabric of the gloves, are your fingers 75% covered? made of nitrile with a small insert on the back so that the fabric can "breathe". I found this uncomfortable and annoying, I'm used to more expensive high-flex gloves that cost five times as much a pair, or looser mechanic's gloves that soak up oil and leave your hands soaked in that oil. The more expensive High Flex gloves had decent coverage but only on the outside of the glove, not on your skin like these. My goal for these gloves was general use in a computer/electronics environment and timely packing and unpacking of these items. also with high agility. These gloves worked (wrapping/unwrapping and dexterity) but irritated my hands (skin) and warmed up my hands, I couldn't stand them for more than a few hours and switched to my existing gloves which after a few weeks start to tear more daily Use. When I was working on my machine, they would probably keep my hands oil-free if I didn't get my fingers wetter than other gloves I've had and cooler than vinyl or nitrile disposable gloves that aren't strong enough to wear while working not to tear the car. The best comparison I can make for the feel of these gloves is the garden style textured rubber gloves you find in many stores, often referred to as knitted and covered in something like latex. Imagine this on your hot/warm hand while wearing it and this is how they feel inside. The texture on the inside is the same as my thicker yellow/grey knitted/latex gloves I bought from Hport Fcargo. I was destined for Covid-19, these are not the gloves you are looking for. All in all the price of these gloves is great and they appear to be a good product. I will use them at some point while I work on my old rust/grease. Means of transport. But until then I'm using them as work gloves for woodworking/general use and maybe as a backup to go to the shop during these tough times©
