I got this for a gift for my friend who is an artist and works with graphite, charcoal and conte crayons, pastels etc. She is always getting bits on her hand and dragging it across the paper as she work, or just getting stuff on the side of her hand that is very hard to get off. It looks like it will do the job at making that problem lesser- this she can just remove and wash the glove and hopefully not smear so much. I didn't even know there was such a product I am sure she will appreciate it!
