What kind of gloves to use for car body work

I just picked up some trim adhesive to re-affix some peeling trim on my car. Thing is, the warning on the back says that even skin contact with the adhesive requires medical attention. What kind of gloves should I use for application?

What sort of glue?

but usually just some disposable latex or neoprene if you have a latex allergy will work for most things.

"Contains Methyl Ethyl Ketone, Thermoplastic Polyurethane, Vinyl Chloride, Vinyl Acetate, Maleic Acid Polymer, Isopropylidenediphenol-Epichlorohydrin Polymer". Mean anything to you? I'll pick up some disposable gloves tomorrow.

I know the MEK is pretty irritating, and a plastic welding agent.
The rest seem to just be various plastics/polymers, which arent too good for your health if inhaled or come into contact with.

Just be careful and work in a very well ventilated area would be my advice.

If you go to the brands website for the glue it should have a link to the products material safety data sheet, that would have specifics to what precautions to use.

MEK is probably the most troubling of those components. But like Foomy said, wear neoprene gloves and do the work with your garage door open and a pedestal fan blowing fresh air in from outside, and you should be fine.
