I have a few pairs of 'mechanics' gloves I picked up from my race-bike
days.  I use one pair solely for nasty jobs (they're very difficult to
clean once soiled), the others only see bike duty, where the parts are
already pristine.

I guess the point was: if you get a pair dirty, they'll transfer the
oil/dirt/etc. to clean parts, and they're hard to get clean again.  after
several trips to the washer, one pair fell apart.

for $30, I was disappointed.
