Drill powered sanding pads

I have to say, that one makes my safety spidey senses tingle, but I'm sure it's safe in the right uses.

Edit: Just saw it was a link to the buffer/sander, not the glove.

First thing I thought also!! I had never heard of that before and will check it out.

Glenn, you hit on information I was going to have to ask next and now know the answer.
 
They do sell "Sanding Gloves" though, like I said, I'm sure they are safe in most hand sanding situations, but certainly wouldn't want to be their insurance agent, or claims adjuster. ;)
I can see some applications on a lathe where something like a glove with Velcro fingertips could be useful, but I sure wouldn't want to sand the inside of a spinning hollow form with the sandpaper stuck to my finger. I've sanded the inside of a lot of spinning hollow forms, but when I let pressure off the sandpaper, I want it to let go of my finger.
