Hello,
I use the disposable Nitrile gloves for working generally with chemicals Serrata code 1016057 (that's for large) , if I need gloves for concentrated chemicals I have a heavy duty pair ( black rubber gloves)I'm pretty sure I purchased those from Bunnings? for washing up I just use the rubber pair you buy from Woolies.
regards

The glove manufacturers (such as Ansell) have a table of recommendations for suitable gloves. So I have a couple of different types. I buy gloves that are long enough to tuck the edge of my lab coat in, so there are no exposed bits of skin. For washing up, I just get a good quality pair from the supermarket.
