What are the best gloves to wear while soft washing?
How do you keep your hands warm while pressure washing in the winter?
With the weather changing, it's time to think about how to best keep your hands warm!
Over the years I've tried all types of combinations of gloves/glove liners, etc. There are two problems that always come up:
So, here is the best solution that will get you everything you need:
That's it. Cheap gloves that give you just enough insulation to keep you warm and dry while also maintaining good finger dexterity!
(Bonus tip: toss the work gloves up on your dash and blast the defroster in between jobs to dry them out.)

Over the years I've tried all types of combinations of gloves/glove liners, etc. There are two problems that always come up:
- Thin Gloves don't keep you warm/dry
- Thick gloves don't have enough dexterity for cleaning
So, here is the best solution that will get you everything you need:
- Start with those .99 cent cheap one-size fits all cotton gloves. These are the ones you buy virtually anywhere.
- Nitrile disposable gloves. Any thickness really. Just a cheap box of disposables. Their job is to keep your cotton gloves dry, nothing more. Put these on next
- Nitrile dipped work gloves. You can get a pair of these anywhere from $3-$10 from any box store. The purpose of these is to protect the disposables and keep them from tearing. You probably want to go one size up since you'll be wearing these over the cotton gloves and disposables. Put these on as the final layer.
That's it. Cheap gloves that give you just enough insulation to keep you warm and dry while also maintaining good finger dexterity!
