Let me give you one tip... Add some liquid dish soap to your quench bucket, change out once a week.. I never use gloves on a grinder, a good way to lose a digit, by adding the soap it will keep your hands clean and that nasty black out from under your fingernails.

I'm a commercial building consultant; without notice I call meetings with my client, architects and engineers, and from time to time meetings with city officials. , it's embarrassing sit down with a group of professionals with nasty hands.
