THIN GLOVES QUIT BEFORE THE JOB DOES.
You know the drill. Two minutes into an oil change and the glove's torn at the thumb. The box says "heavy duty" but they snap like balloons the second they touch a bolt. And once they're slick with grease? You can't hold a wrench, let alone your phone. You end up double-gloving, re-gloving, or just going bare-handed and scrubbing degreaser off your skin at dinner time. Cheap gloves don't save you money — they just make you buy more of them.
