I also prefer Nitrile, but Latex can withstand chemicals that Nitrile cannot. Some days at work I go through 20 pairs of Nitrile. I prefer the tightest fitting that I can get on easily to have the greatest dexterity.

My nitrile gloves lasted about 10 seconds while using aircraft stripper.

So it is best to have both around and know when to use which.

2nd that on aircraft stripper. Heavy duty chemical gloves work well for all the really harsh stuff and still less than $10 at the hardware store. My wife brings home the gloves that are past usage date from the hospital. Cheap and plentiful.
