I'm not sure I'm clear: what are you using the lacquer thinner for?

As I told Abarth, who wore gloves yesterday and offered me some, I find the gloves almost as irritating as the grease. I have weirdly sensitive skin, and it dries out really, really easily. Latex gloves are death for that. I try not to put anything at all on my hands, and if I do, I wash it off quickly. Then I lather up with heavy duty sensitive skin moisturizer, and call it good.
