i noticed this as well with the thin walmart gloves....now i get some nice automotive gloves they are thicker and more split resistant...god knows how many time the cheap walmart gloves rip up and leave your fingers exposed..


i also heard from a friend that fingerprints dont show up on cardboard or tyvek? havent tested out his theory lol...


true, but if you use any tape....
 
a thin layer of silicone or fingernail top coat works well also
the top coat is the "clear coat" stuff that makes yer girls nails shiny

Bandaids work too :good: So seemingly innocent :bigeye: :thinking:

Even more so when out in public because you only need them on certain fingers ;)

when are we spose to be wearing gloves again??? is the idea not to leave prints in the grow environment, when not liiving in with the crop?:)
 
There was a seperate thread that i posted about this...
The beauty of latex/nitrile gloves is that they are disposable, but unfortunately they leave prints, so what is a security concious weed wrangler to do? Double bagging (using two gloves) may work for some, but alas, is not entirely foolproof. A tried and true method is to get thin/fine cotton gloves (check the beauty and/or skin care section of walmart) and wear these gloves UNDER your latex/nitrile gloves- and presto! No more prints! The cotton gloves also allow you to wear the disposable gloves COMFORTABLY for long periods of time!

Fire...gloves and other plastic waste help cover up the smell of burning roots, leaves, stems, not to mention the pounds of extracted trim you have lying around waiting for that " second run" that you will never be hard up enough to run unless you get popped with enough leftovers to get you hard time..... Yeah, I know burning plastic is bad, might keep you out of prison tho...
