So ... you didn't want to know what I thought of it?

FWIW, I am becoming increasingly fond of wearing nitrile gloves from HF.  They're only a couple of cents apiece, and now come in several different thicknesses.  For packing bearings, I just don a pair of the thinnest (and cheapest) ones, then pack the bearing the old fashioned way by smearing grease across my left palm and scraping it off with the edge of the roller cage.  When you're all done, and the bearing is in place, just peel off the gloves and drop them in the car.

I still don't wear them for everything, but they work great for packing bearings.
