    Have done a few laminates recently, where can you get the purpose made gloves for pushing the planks in ?

    That's why Michael Jackson only had one glove, makes a lot of sense now.

    They have a pad on the underside of your hand. Some laminates that you need to knock in you can tap in with your hand and the pad protects your hand.

    If putting down a lot of meters you can fit very fast with a glove.

    If you toughen your hands up you could fit even quicker.

    I can't wear gloves got circulation probs, hands overheat or get cold too easily usually crack and bleed for fun.

    gloves....really?
    do you not want full finger gloves to protect your nails as well?
    I think my missus has a pair you can have, she uses them for gardening
