Does anyone use white gloves to handle records?


Just thought I'd ask if there is much benefit. I know oil from my fingers will touch the edge and some of it will migrate a little inside. I also see the extra hassle of keeping them stored away from dust each and every time. Also how hard is it to manipulate cleaning the record and taking it in and out of the sleave?  What white gloves wouldn't impart any flake off particulates? Just bored here members.  Lets be respectful. Anyway let's hear your opinions

With the right outfit, white gloves will probably be quite stylish.  As you are likely aware, formal attire is quite appropriate for listening to records.  My concern is that gloves will cover my wedding ring and attract lots of women which my wife will not appreciate.  Guess I'll just stick with my top hat and cane like everyone else when I listen to my records.
I wash my hands before I handle my records. Then you handle the LP by the edges and label and you shouldn't have any issues. I been doing this for 40 years and my records play like new.

Of course you should clean yours records periodically. Thats more important than wearing gloves.

 I was always horrified by hip-hop DJs but have learned to accept that part...

Rappers are to blame for destruction of tens of thousands of perfectly good SL-1200mk2 turntables. They don’t need sound quality anyways, just time code which they could use a crappy cheap encoder for. 
Gloves keep you from having to wash your hands as, really, who the hell has time for that? Also it's good to use other people wearing gloves to handle your vinyl, and it simply means shelling out a slightly larger holiday bonus for the staff, as painful as that can be.
