Looking for Puppeteer Protective Gloves

[rche]

Hiya folks,

I am using some live hand (glove hand) puppets, along with some hand/rod fellows in my home as helpers for teaching and such. We live in central TX and it is HOT and MUGGY.

I seem to recall seeing something about long gloves; cotton? silk? ... that the puppeteer wears to keep perspiration out of the inside of the puppets, and help keep the puppets clean and non-smelly.

Was wondering if anyone could point me towards what they use for this sort of thing.

thanks in advance -
one sweaty puppeteer - rche

Probably what would work best for you, and with minimal investment, are cotton gloves such as are used for handling photographic negatives and other sensitive items. You can find them at B&H photo for next to nothing in cost by clicking this link.

They actually have several different grades available, and if you just type "cotton gloves" into the search field it will show you all they carry.
