Can someone recommend a source for lint free gloves?

I just finished up a black ebonite pen, and dang, does it show EVERY little piece of lint, as well as fingerprints.

It took me a real long time to get acceptable photos.

If not lint free gloves, maybe suggestions for dealing with this issue?

Thanks.

Picture framers should have them and they get them in small quantities as 'gimmees' from the specialty glass manufacturers. Just remember that each time you put them on, oil from your hands will be absorbed unless you use latex, rubber, etc gloves under the lint free gloves.

Scotchbrite microfiber cloths and swiffers work well as dust magnets
 
What about rubber or latex gloves?? I buy a box of 100 for less than $10 at Sam's club and use them when I paint tubes, inside of blanks and for all my gluing (PU will stain your fingers nice dark).

I think that most latex gloves have a powder coating.

I use them when applying epoxy, and I'm pretty sure they would leave the powder issues. But I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Isn't the talc powder on the inside? Even if there is some on the outside, just put them on and then wash your hands (gloves on )[;)]

If you have just polished an acrylic, espescially black, it will attract every bit of dust in the neighbourhood[}:)][:D]
 
Even better are these, lint-free and anti-static. It doesn't say how much they cost, but I plan to call them tomorrow.
