Gloves

[Ray T.]

Can anyone recommend some cold weather gloves that I can wear when I wash my car in the winter? Thank You!

The consensus from previous threads of this type seemed to be (scuba) diving gloves, or ice fishing gloves. Hope that helps.

Yes! I just did a search for this and came across these. They work great for the handful of rinseless washes I've done. Initially I wished they were a bit longer but it hasn't been an issue. Hands stay dry and never get cold.

These look very similar and about half the cost, but I cannot personally recommend them as I've not tried them.

I would imagine both of the above examples would be ok for holding a wash mitt or sponge but most likely nothing like folding a microfiber or maybe handling a thin handle Detail brush.

Not that it gets that cold here, but if I'm doing wet work on a cold day I find these work well. They are also very robust.

I used these this winter. It was above freezing but cold. My hands felt completely fine and they allow pretty good dexterity. They're 0.5mm neoprene.

Cold weather is relative, but say 40°, I just use dish cleaning gloves, the tall yellow ones lol. I dump warm water in the buckets and it works well enough.
