At my shop we use the Nitrel gloves kev mentioned, they are way better than latex. But for the paint that does get on you or your clothes, laquer thinner will take of any paint that isn't cured, and most that have. After the thinner evaporates use a hand cream for dry skin. This helps prevent raw cracked skin, and loosens up what is left behind by the thinner so that hand soap will remove it. A note on laquer thinner....they are not all the same. Avoid ones that contain MEK(Methye Ethyl Ketone). While none of them are harmless, MEK is very bad, and is readily absorbed throught he skin. Otherwise, an ocassional exposure is nothing to worry about. And finally, NO SMOKING.
