what is everyone using the black nitrile gloves for?

I use them for cleaning wheels and engine bays since they are usually pretty nasty, and I also use them when cleaning nasty interiors. Never know what your going to run into in some vehicles. Otherwise I don't use gloves.

I use them for rinseless washes in winter

Pretty much this. I don't use them when doing any paint correction, waxing, etc.

I don't wear them more than I do. However, I always have some "in stock".

They also work great for removing hair from carpet/upholstery.

I pretty much wear them for the full detail, replacing when necessary.

They are also fantastic for oil changes.

+1

I always hated plastic & rubber gloves as they made my hands sweat. The nitriles don't so I find myself using them more often, frequently around the house and garage when using harsh cleaners, shoe polish or anything I don't particularly want to get on my hands. As Bill mentioned, perfect for keeping hot oil off your mitts during oil changes! I don't know as I'd run out and buy a big box of 'em, I got a few freebie sample pairs with an order. Very nice product!

Just about everything except the car wash.

Agreed with most other posts, awesome for oil changes or basic cleaning in the engine. I use them for 95% of the detail process, awesome for when your cleaning the wheels and undercarriage. Also they give you a great feel, a lot more sensitive than I would have ever figured. I always take them off when doing my final QD/spray wax for some reason.
