I guess the better ones hold up for a while, but on jobs like
that, they probably shred pretty quickly.

I haven't tried latex gloves in close to 20 years when they first
started marketing them towards the repair industry.

People are different. And operating rooms are usually cold, whereas
shops are more on the warm side.

I like my Mechanix gloves.
They come off when doing "fine" work, but for stuff like spark plugs
they save a lot of wear and tear on the knuckles... I bleed a lot less.

They aren't fireproof, but you are less worried about burning yourself
around hot parts.

Also I think there's a lot less cussing and sweating in an operating
room. Most organs are soft and squishy and cut pretty easily compared
to rusted shock bolts...

Permatex and probably others make a thicker latex glove that lasts better than
anything I've found, and doesn't reduce feel that much. For a little better
tactile feel, with less tear-resistance and a lower cost, use nitrile.
I use a lot of both for DIY tasks.
