Finger Prints Through Vinyl Gloves

Thin gloves do not do a great job at blocking your fingerprints from being marked on objects and anything around you.

Finger prints through vinyl gloves.

When discovered by authorities latent fingerprints may also be recovered from. This is obviously a problem when you re trying to avoid just that. One of the main reasons that you can have problems with disposable gloves is that they are often thin. Then in the middle of 2001 a collegue handed me four latex gloves which had been thrown away by burglars.

I had tried many times to treat disposable latex and vinyl gloves with chemical means but virtually all these attempts failed to produce a result. Latex nitrile plastic rubber or vinyl gloves are worn because they are thin and cling to the wearer s skin which in turn provides a level of dexterity to the wearer. Wearing gloves in almost all instances would prevent a fingerprint being deposited on the surface but research has proved that thinner gloves mostly latex gloves would still leave a fingerprint through the glove on most surfaces.
