If you work on your car, you should be wearing gloves.
It’s not like you can’t work on your car without gloves—I’ve done it plenty of times when I’m in a pinch or otherwise don’t have access to a pair. But doing it all the time just isn’t healthy. In addition to protecting from physical abrasions caused by sharp objects, exposing your skin to all of that grime that comes with old engine bays and suspension components can damage your skin.
Which type of gloves you use will depend on what you're doing and your personal preferences. For most jobs I like to use standard disposable industrial-level gloves simply because they’re the most comfortable. They’re also less cumbersome than reusable mechanic’s gloves. The downsides are they’re easily damaged, wasteful, and bad for the environment. I’ll usually switch to padded mechanic’s gloves if I’m working with heavy-duty parts where I might bust a knuckle if I’m not careful.
