In putting on the dry gloves the hands are first thoroughly dried and powdered. The advantage of the dry method is that the hand is not so liable to perspire, so that less bacteria is extruded in the event of the glove being punctured.

The solution must not be boiled. Apply by immersion, allowing excess to drip from the fingers; the acetone solution dries in a few seconds, that of benzin requires two or three minutes.
