After washing gloves, what should you do to remove excess water?

• A. Rinse and wring vigorously.
• B. Squeeze, but do not wring to remove excess water.
• C. Let air dry with gloves contacting each other.
• D. Place in the dryer.

Answer: (B)

The main idea is to remove water without stressing the glove material. Squeezing gently pushes water out of the fabric without twisting or pulling on the seams, which helps preserve the glove’s shape and integrity. Wringing would apply twisting force that can stretch or tear the gloves. Letting them dry with the gloves touching each other can trap moisture and cause odor or damage over time, and using a dryer could heat-damage or warp the gloves. So, squeeze, but do not wring, to remove excess water.
