Gloves that trichs won't stick to?

It drives me nuts when I finish trimming and have sooooo much "finger hash" on my fingers. I try my best to handle them very gingerly but as much effort, love, and money as we put into these plants, I want every trich possible - in tact, on the bud. So my question is this: do any of you use gloves that trichs do not stick to?

I'm thinking in an alternate method and Il be straight I don't know the answer to what I am about to propose.

Many people make tinctures with everclear.

Will everclear eat up latex? If not dip the glove in that or what ever else dissolves thc in that way and try to make something out of that.

Again. I'm high. Just brain storming some possibilities and do not make tinctures so fuck if I know if am posing an actual solution :)

Again fuck if I know lmao.

All I know is people dissolve thc into everclear. All else about the process is lost on me.

I do gold recovery from computer parts.

So for simplicity sake I will only go over the parts that matter.

I dissolve the base metals from the computer parts with either nitric acid or HCL/peroxide mix.

This leaves the precious metals. Those precious metals are generally 14k gold, some silver, platinum and in some cases Rodium.

In order to get the gold to 24k i need to remove base metals from the gold. In order to do this I have to dissolve the gold with aqua Regia. This dissolves the gold into the liquid.

I then drop the gold only out of the aqua Regia using SMB sodium bi carbonate. The forces the gold only out of the liquid while the liquid holds onto the other metals that were in the 14k gold.

I now have very close to 99% gold powder sitting at the bottom of the beaker.

My point of explaining this I wonder if there is a drop out process for everclear or something like it.

That was hella interesting. I always wondered about that shit. That explains a lot. Are you only recovering the gold?

THC is soluble in alcohol or fat. Use the Everclear, then just do shots! :D

I feel that you're gonna lose the trichs from handling, whether or not on the gloves or your hands. I don't even bother with gloves any more, and just get the sticky shit off my hands with rubbing alcohol. IMO that small amount isn't a loss I'm concerned with, with jars of bud, a pinch or 2 of finger hash is no big deal

My Levo C just came in!! Now all I need are the seeds from Barney's and, after growing the Gorilla Cookies autos, they'll go into infusion an oz at the time. I'm so stoked about this grow.

Nitrile is tough af but doesn't have the same stretch as latex but latex is less forgiving, if you put a hole in the resin part it would be a pain to re cover anything from that area.
