I don't know exactly what you mean by PRACTICAL, but am I to presume that
gloves are impractical? Those of you who do use gloves, (myself included),
should be aware that various types of gloves are rated for protection
against certain solvents only. I don't have a list on hand, but sometimes
the incompatibility is obvious - like when acetone turns your gloves into
swiss cheese. Does anyone have any information on polymer types vs.
solvent penetration? When I worked for Dow Chemical we had such lists for
all of our gloves, but the information was proprietary.
