My hands get sweaty sometimes and it's a real pain when I work with my PC. So the idea of using gloves as a sort of "containment" is pretty appealling to me.

Are there any problems when working with PCs and gloves though? These aren't anti-static gloves or anything... just some vinyl disposable ones I picked up in the supermarket.

Just wanted to check in case something goes wrong... thanks.
 
I wouldnt worry to much about sweaty hands, i work day in day out with sensative pcb's and we never bother with gloves, just ESD shoes, work surface and straps.
 
don't worry about it, you will probally find there is more of a problem of having a pc running in a very humid room than a one off pair of sweaty hands touching the boards for 5 minutes.
