Re: [bikers_anon] Disinfecting gloves

The problem with leather is its a great vessel in which to grow bacteria.
Just like smelly shoes or feet they need to be periodicly disinfected to kill
the resident bacteria.
There are many feet and shoe disinfectents out there for exactly this purpose.
I use a cream called "Canesten" on me smelly feet and it works great.
Might be worth trying it on ya hands and placing hands in for-mentioned gloves.
Another trick is to use foramlin. Maybe hard to get.
A few drops on a cotton ball and place in the gloves.
I used to do this for my boots and it worked really well.

good luck

Subject: [bikers_anon] Disinfecting gloves



I have a pair of lovely Teknik gloves. They smell like something that
crawled out of a septic pit somewhere in Bombay.

I'm afraid to wear them, since the last time I shook someone's hand
after wearing these gloves the poor sod contracted SARS, leprosy and
the Plague, which dropped them dead on the spot.

The other day they marched into the living room under their own power,
stared me straight in the eye and said "A solution must be found for
cleaning us."

I tried making a light mixture of Detol + water in a spray bottle and
attacking them with that, but that didn't help. I attacked them with a
'disinfecting spray' I found at the supermarket, but I realised too
late it was lavender scented. So now I have gloves that smell like
lavender, detol and diarrhea in equal proportions.

I haven't been able to find these gloves again, and I really like them
(apart from the smell). Before I turf them, does anyone have a magic
solution for making them clean once more? I thought about getting
Father Paddy down the road to exorcise them, but the gloves refuse to
visit the church.

Regards,

Luke.
