If you expect to get a lot on you use at least 2 layers of the usual lab
gloves. They dissolve in methylene chloride. I commonly will use 3 layers
and change them often. Then to I also end up using other much nastier
solvents at them same time. 1,1,1 trichlor. will dissolve gloves in about
30 sec. and if not used in a good fume hood will give you a bad solvent
headache in a short time. I can always tell how good each customers fume
hoods are when I use it.
