well I just had to get out some sphag so I thought I'd report back.

I find I can't do the powdered gloves either. They are really aggravating to my skin. For sphag-washing, it's perfectly possible to put a plastic bag over your hand - you don't need a lot of control, LOL.

Here's a pic of a wad of sphag, rinsed once and squeezed tight.
