Re: Do you wear gloves when cleaning your guns?

One contribution I would like to make to this thread (sorry if someone already posted it) is to post this link to a glove manufacturer's guide for selecting gloves based upon chemical compatibility. This will help a user to:

1. Look up the MSDS for a given cleaning product, lubricant or whatever (contact the product manufacturer or go to their website).
2. Check the formulation for whatever chemicals it contains in the largest percentages.
3. Cross-reference the chemicals with the glove material indicated in the guide that will resist those chemicals best.

Liberty enquired about CLP earlier in the thread. My opinion, take it or leave it, is that it is unrealistic to expect a single product to perform three different functions properly (cleaning, lubricating, protecting, hence the acronym). Furthermore, I have not been impressed the few times I have used CLP. I reckon it can function okay as a lubricant on a limited, temporary basis until I can find something better for the application; this is how I would choose to use it and presently use it.
