Do You Use The Plastic Gloves When Filling Up?

[japthree]

I sometimes use them if (a.) there's some left and (b.) I remember to but rarely see anyone else use them? Surely for hygienic reasons and not just getting the fuel on the skin it should be a good idea to? How grubby are the petrol pump unit thingys?

I started using them at the shell recently, got fed up with stinking hands and for hygiene reasons.

Petrol station i use has it own valeting bay, when theres no cars to clean the owner has the lads cleaning the forecourt including the pumps. As a result of this its a pretty clean petrol station. I havnt left there smellin gof fuel even when filling up diesel.

think the same

never used them

[Mike_B]

They are for chicks and diesels only... :P :P :P

Petrol handles tend to be quite clean, because it evaporates quickly. Diesel handles do stink sometimes though....

My petrol station never has any- probably wouldn't use the plastic gloves anyway even if they did have them.

[mattc]

No never.

I always used the gloves when I had a diesel car. Maybe it was just the service stations I used, but my hands stinked of diesel after every fill-up if I didn't use them. It was so bad, I even had some spare gloves in the car to use in case there were none by the pumps.

I've had petrol cars ever since and never found a need to use the gloves with a petrol pump!

i've never used them and my hands have never stunk of fuel, even when i had diesels. just doesn't even occur to me that they are there lol.

[Anuj's Bro Maneesh]

I just keep alcho rub in me car

Never used gloves and never smelled like fuel after tanking. But only been driving petrol and it tend to evaporate quickly so i guess you only have to wear gloves for tanking up a diesel

I use gloves if I am filling up the pug (its a derv) ... and the lexus if I am working ... mobile IT tech for the NHS .. Doctor's don't like you smelling of fuel in their surgery

[Bazza]

i dont wear gloves, but at times when filling up with diesel i wished i had

nothing worse than stinking diesel all over your hands

be careful of when there is spilt diesel on the floor, ends up getting wiped off on your carpets and then the car stinks !

[Bobski]

Usually do when I fill up with Deisel......

[BRUC3]

pussys! :P

I dont, but then im a white van man. Also do the old tradition of spilling a bit on the floor, so when a motorcyclist comes along to fill up slips on the offending diesel :)

All in a good days work!!! :P
