I can answer that from my own problems with latex gloves.The first time I got a rash it was the most intense where my hands perspired the most. My own hands get red on palms first then the knuckles and wrists.
Fascinating.
I now favor a latex allergy theory, then.
But I think they made home-made pepper spray so perhaps the gloves related to that work.
I read that when realtor Gloria Irish went to see the apartment, they had torn out the toilet. I have no idea why they would do that.
