This is interesting. How/when are gloves dangerous? I've been TIG welding for about a year now, I self-studied my way through a welding textbook[1] and have friends who are professional welders (union pipe-fitters, etc) and have never heard anything about gloves being dangerous. In fact according to the pipe-fitters, gloves are in the category of eye and head protection of "must be worn on a union jobsite."
