ONLY when cleaning my Savage 99F, 250/3000, pre-million. All my others get cleaned the blue collar way......no gloves.
There's an ad for some product on tv saying each generation of american males has less testosterone than the one before. After skimming through this thread I believe it. Sheesh, what a bunch of scared wimps.
I'm a painter and my dad was a painter. I've washed my hands,arms and other parts with a lot of things and I'm doing fine. My dad was painting back in the days when painters mixed chunks of lead with linseed oil to make the paints. I guess the lead got to him. He only lived to 94.
The only decent excuse here I saw was from a dentist who said patients wouldn't appreciate stained hands while being worked on. Although dentists do wear gloves while doing the work so .....
Been ponderin' the reason for wearing gloves for gun cleaning. There is nothing in your skin to hurt the gun's finish, especially if you give it a good coat of oil before storing it away.

The world is so simple for some people. Anyone who takes precautions they don't are scared wimps.

Good solvents that actually work are not great for your bare skin......There are more eco friendly items availabile (Frog Lube for instance).
Unless those are just terrible for basic cleaning/lube why not use those?

I have formerly-beautiful firearms with clearly visible fingerprints from my Alien-grade finger exudations. And one stainless steel pistol with a clearly-visible fingerprint on the slide.
After handling any gun I have to wipe it down, oil it, and make sure to hold it only with rags when putting it away. Because if I let my skin touch it, there *will* be a permanent mark later.

Frog Lube is coconut oil. Some people love it, others hate it. YMMVSo is there any information that it does not work well?
<shrug & smile> For all I know (or care) Frog Lube may be the best thing in the universe for the purpose(s). After I read the report of the lab results and stopped laughing (the thought of it still makes me chuckle), I moved along.So is there any information that it does not work well?
