Anyone wear gloves to handle vacuum tubes?

I wear cloth gloves to change or to test tubes. Does anyone else do this? I see lots of bare fingers handling tubes on ebay. If I ever do touch them with bare skin, I am very quick to wipe with dry cloth after. Just wondering what the rest of the world does. Thanks

I use kitchen tongs.

Just kidding. I use my teeth.

Do you remove teeth first or leave them in your mouth?

Those tubes like a little bite along with the pressure, so I leave the teeth in.

@vuch I use special hand stitched, exotic leather, custom made

Would that be fine Corinthian leather?
