Re: lye burn

disposible gloves are not heavy enough, use the yellow rubber ones for dish washing, they have some really nice fitting ones that you can still work well with.
hope your burn heals ok.

I disagree, at least in terms of using disposable gloves made out of Nitrile (as opposed to latex). The Nitile gloves are puncture, tear, and chemical resistant. I usually use Playtex Living gloves, but I just recently bought some disposable Nitrile gloves for the first time, and those things are practically indestructable. They are super-strong and durable and I am able to use them much more than just once. I can't say the same about disposable latex, though.
