If I was as greasy as Greasy then gloves. If I get dirty rarely then I'll mostly choose feel over function

all kidding aside, I use gloves when handling nasty chemicals and painting or really goopy jobs like packing wheel bearings and breaking down automatic transmissions. I frequently use invisible glove as well if I know I'm jumping job to job and won't have time to scrub down.

Automatic transmissions… ugh. The smell of ATF, especially burned ATF, is something I could never get used to. Well gear lube in general, but ATF is the worst. I'm super happy not to have to deal with that frequently.
