I have seen some high mile SBCs that looked like that on the inside .

Nothing like the smell of good sludge.

 

I've got a friend who is a mech by trade 15 years+. He just started wearing them. He swears by them, and as a side benefit, he says his gf lets him play with her ******* much more often now since his hands are cleaner and softer.

 

I highly recommend the MPact glove by Mechanix. I have a pair of them, the regular Mechanix gloves, and the fastfit type. I use the MPact gloves when I'm doing any kind of hard hammering or leverage work since they have this nice silicone gel padding on the backs of the hands and thicker inside palm leather.

MPact - $24.99
Normal - $19.99
Fastfit - $14.99

or thereabouts. $5 is worth it to me and the MPacts have lasted me at least a year. I just wore through the index finger a few weeks ago.

 

I have big hands and have a hard time getting them into places. I would not even want to try to put a glove on top my hands.

Little girly hands....oh...so cute.....haha

 

fat ***

 

No doubt. I don't have fat arms, but I have BIG hands IMO, and many others. I dunno about tight places, but I think it's one of those "once yo start can't stop" type of deals.

I use them for big things like a tire/wheel swap or exhaust where you don't really have to feel anything. For smaller things I perfer the latex style gloves, that way you can still feel around and don't have a bulky glove on.

 

I actually am considering getting a pair being a lot of the work I do is not in tight spaces.

Guess they are not just a crappy pair of gloves after reading some responses in this thread.

 

For exhuast work etc., I've got a pair of $4 leather gloves

 

Obviously, there are times where you can't use gloves, but you would be surprised how many times you can use them. You can pick up change with them.

 

turning a tightly torqued bolt (my head bolts) is a great place to use them

 

Dude, quit taking pictures and get some of those cars running
Trey, you finally throwing the heads on?

 

I took a buncha them when I was takin my car apart. I have a bad habit of taking a ****load of pictures. People on the Corral say I have a Camera Monkey

Just got back from AZ, my rotating assy should be here by now, gonna stop by the shop on monday...

 

best $16 i have spent. though they didnt help too much on my header gasket install (car had been ruinning for a while before install). the header heat burned right through em.
