Gloves are sterile wouldn't this tend to embed whatever is on the hands in the surface as it dries?

Which is fine - when you put on gloves, they just cover up whatever is on your skin in the same way.

On the outside of the surface as well which is not fine. Goo would tend to irritate the skin stick in your pores and be challenging to quickly change when you contaminated one exterior which happens a lot

Medical gloves are not sterile (outside maybe of ones specifically packaged for use in an OR).
