>     Wearing gloves when polishing is DANGEROUS 

    I know someone who did this - bad friction burns and bruising on
    their hands. What was worse was the damage to their neck. The glove
    got caught, pulled them in violently their hand came away when the
    glove ripped apart- they had to wear a collar for a number of weeks. 

    I use a piece of thick leather, cut off the edge of my skin, about
    1x6 cm for rings.
