george12182 Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 What type of gloves do you guys where when pouring? Will any leather work glove do? It seems like most of them don't provide alot of dexterity. Is their any thin gloves that still provide protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBaits Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I use them Renegade fish cleaning gloves that you get at wal-mart for $2-$3 bucks. Out of all that Ive tried these will give you the best heat protection and you do not lose much dexterity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitbull Baits Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I wouldn't go with cloth type gloves the plastic can seep though. I just use an oven mit they work pretty well. I think they have some glove like cooking gloves out. I would assume they would work also. I am a little use to the heat I have worked in kitchens since I was a kid so it doesn't bother me as bad as others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I just use a square pot holder when pouring with the Pyrex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longhorn Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I use aluminum pans with wooden handles so no gloves needed and haven't had a plastic burn in 35 years. Another advantage of heating with infrared lamps:twocents: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitbull Baits Posted April 17, 2009 Report Share Posted April 17, 2009 I just use a square pot holder when pouring with the Pyrex. I also use one of thoes.

nova Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 The only time I use gloves is when I'm doing a lot of pouring with my aluminum molds. Other than that I don't like to wear gloves. Drives me nuts taking them off to pick out the baits and then putting them back on to pour. I also find that I pour better when I can have full contact with the pyrex. But this is just me and I'm in no way telling anyone to not protect their hands, etc. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattlures Posted April 18, 2009 Report Share Posted April 18, 2009 The ove glove used to be my goto glove but they are expencive and they dont last. once you get too much plastic on the glove it gets too hot. I have since gone to these gloves - Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices And I double them up. They work great and only the top glove gets plastic on it. Throw it away and put on another one. They are cheap and work VERY well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njrfishing Posted April 19, 2009 Report Share Posted April 19, 2009 I use this type of gloves the fit tight to your hands, and when some plastic comes in contact you feel some heat but it doesn't burn your skin,all I do is wipe the plastic off with a cloth.

HJS Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 (edited) What nova said... I don't use gloves either when pouring plastics. Sheesh... I burn myself more when dropping oysters in my Fry Daddy than when I'm pouring plastics. Same approximate temps too if I'm not mistaken.

HeadBanger Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 I got a pair of gloves from Ironclad they are designed for hig heat applications and have great dexterity. I've sneezed while pouring and gotten fresh molten plastic all over the gloves no burns at all but they were fun cleaning up to say the least. pouring with a headcold can be tricky:eek: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Prager Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Which model Ironclad glove are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Lake Lures Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 I use a well worn leather glove which provides the dexterity that I am comfortable with to hold hot pyrex cups. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george12182 Posted April 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 HeadBanger Those seem to be the ticket. I ordered a pair off of ebay for $20 w shipping. They are ironclad heatworx reinforced gloves. They are supposed to withstand temps of up to 450 degrees. I'll let everyone know my opinion of them once I test them out.
