included standing on aluminum ladders in the pouring rain and cleaning gutters, as much time as I spend doing that. But no, they’re just most annoying then, which is why I clean them then. Fortunately for me, I have frog togs, which means only my hands and eyeglasses get wet. Well, and my feet. if I’m gonna stand on an aluminum ladder in a thunderstorm I want there to be GOOD contact. Though the aluminum rungs on bare arches are murder.
