I took some time to do this review and worked with the gloves for a while before I shot this video. I’ve been using them ever since. They’re a nice alternative to the latex gloves I normally use.
If you like these gloves and want to try them out, use promo code “MOTOR15” at checkout for a 15% discount through September 30, 2015.

Eric, just ordered mine today. Also, thanks for the 15% discount! I’m an old-school mechanic that never wore gloves (unless welding) and wanted to try a pair of these new-fangled mechanic’s gloves. I ordered the “touch-screen” gloves, thinking they might give me better feel. Thanks again to you and Ironclad for the opportunity to try them!

I think you’ll be happy with the results. Stop back and let me know what you thought after you’ve had the chance to use them for a bit.
I ordered myself a couple pairs of the Mechanic’s gloves, and so far I really like them. They are very comfortable, easy to put on and take off, and I used them during a brake job and liked them a lot. My only complaint is I ordered extra larges based on the sizing guide I printed off, but they were a little too big. I gave those away to someone with bigger hands and ordered a pair of larges that fit much better and now I’m very satisfied.

I’ve been using them quite a bit lately myself. I do like the ease of taking them off and putting them back on. Much easier than nitrile or latex gloves. The down side is they get saturated. What I mean is that once you get oil on them, it’s very hard to wash out. At least in my experience. Once they get ‘saturated’ you can only use them for specific jobs because you’ll leave greasy hand prints everywhere. They also don’t keep your hands clean at that point.
At least that’s been my experience up to this point. Still love the gloves and really like using them.

That’s good to know Eric, thanks! I’ll probably switch over to my Diamond Grip gloves for oily jobs then. I did that when I needed to handle some anti-seize, as we all know that stuff gets everywhere, and I didn’t want it to get all over those gloves.

Sounds like a good strategy. Good luck and let me know how they work out for you.
