Fuel Up with FuelGlove
A gas pump is one of the dirtiest things you touch in a day. According to a study by Kimberly-Clark, on average,
gas pumps can have 11,000 times more bacteria than the common household toilet seat. It is gross to think about, but
it is a reality vehicle owners must face. Aside from germs, chemicals from gasoline fuel are not ideal for contact
with bare skin.
Sure, you can apply hand sanitizer after filling up your tank, but wouldn’t you prefer not to touch the gas
pump at all? You never have to touch the gas pump or keypad with your bare hand again with the WeatherTech
FuelGlove!
What Is the WeatherTech FuelGlove?
The WeatherTech FuelGlove is essential for any vehicle owner. When you have to fill up your tank, quickly grab your
Fuel Gloves and give yourself a protective barrier between you and the pump. The FastFit® style of the glove
features a slip-on open cuff that allows users to literally slip the glove on before pumping their fuel and off once
their tank is filled up. The textured Armortex Grip displaces any liquids on the fuel pump handle, enhancing
gripping power on wet or oily surfaces.
FuelGlove is machine washable and available in a variety of sizes.
