Nitrile Gloves

Hi

I'm looking for a place to buy a box of cheap nitrile gloves for restoring the gelcoat on the hull of a rib.

Everywhere online I have looked seems to be £7+!!

Any ideas

Thanks
Stuart

They're aren't actually that cheap, if there is only 50 gloves in a box, the norm is a hundred.

Also, it's normal practise to wear 2 on each hand, as when the inevitable happens, it's a lot easier to rip a sticky one off, leaving a fresh one underneath.

I'd certainly agree with the "powder" though, without it they're a devil to get on.

Draper do a box of 100. Can be sourced from most motor-factors. Better than latex, and are difficult to tear. I used to go through 10 pairs of the latex gloves if I was servicing the car, as they ripped easily. Dig deep... they come in just under a tenner!
