got curious when I realized my bandaid was somehow touchscreen compatible, despite seemingly just being a piece of cloth. nitrile gloves work (7mil thick), and I’ve even got relatively thick work gloves that work.

    It may have small fibers of something that is conductive.

    For example have some work gloves that aren’t capacitive? Sew an X pattern into it with capacitive thread and you’ll be good to go.

    As for nitrile gloves if the material is thin enough it won’t impede the capacitance sensing too much and they’ll be usable.
