The key is to NOT get oils on your hands onto the lamp itself....the
reflector won't be damaged by your hand, but I would suggest latex as a
minimum level of protection....The cotton white gloves were extensively
shipped along with the EIKI lamps back in the 80's. They were kinda like a
muslin cloth(?) Open weave on them, just enough material to isolate your
oily hands from the Bulb.

Use toilet paper! ;-)

> Good morning everyone,
> I have to change the lamp in this dlp and the RCA original is not in stock
at my distributor but they have a sub that is the original lamp from what I
can tell,  but not in a cage. It is a lamp only. I remember in a RCA school
on this chassis that we shouldn't physically touch the lamp bulb itself so I
was wondering what kind of gloves should be used to put a new lamp in the
old cage. I was thinking of latex gloves but another tech here seems to
remember something about cloth gloves for a similar job back in the day.
