Once you get used the efficiency of the work improves as well. They are washable.
These last long enough to justify washing them?
I use gloves that look like this but different brands, oils and solvents plus a bit of elbow grease and it's breaking apart in about a week.
Is there a specific brand to look at?
These are the best that I tried. Usually, abrasion is what makes them falling apart, so oil, grease, or sanitiser alcohol-free will only prolong their life. I manage to keep them usable 2/3 weeks, 4 days a week, 8 hours for day.
