Apparatus for hand protection and method thereof

A method for hand protecting of a hand having a wrist, a plurality of fingers and a plurality of knuckles, said method comprising the steps of:

• inserting fingers of a hand through finger openings in a flexible sheet having a continuous top side and a bottom flat side opposite the top side, said flexible sheet extending from a first edge to a second edge along a length thereof, said flexible sheet having a plurality of sections including a first section adjacent to said first edge, a second section adjacent to said second edge, and a third section between said first section and said second section, so that along said length from said first edge to said second edge said plurality of sections are ordered said first section, said third section, and said second section,
• an adhesive material on said bottom flat side of said flexible sheet;
• a backing layer on said adhesive material that is subsequently removed;
• said first section includes a flat area that has a plurality of finger openings planar with said flat area and arranged in sequence along a width of said flexible sheet, said width perpendicular to said length, said length from said first edge to said second edge greater than said width, said third section between said finger openings and said second section;
• said second section includes a slit extending from said second edge towards said first edge which separates said second section into a plurality of anchors of substantially equal size and that are adapted for wrapping around said wrist,
• each of said openings are encircled by said flexible sheet in said first section so that, when said fingers are inserted into said openings, respectively, said fingers are encircled by said flexible sheet, topmost edges of said openings are between said first edge and bottom edges of said openings, and
• said flexible sheet includes a flexible sheet portion, above said topmost edges of said openings and below said first edge, that covers said knuckles after removal of at least a portion of said backing layer, said topmost edges above said third section;
• length of said first section is less than combined length of said second section and said third section;
• pressing said third section onto a palm of said hand;
• pressing said flexible sheet portion onto said knuckles to cover said knuckles;
• and
• pressing said anchors around said wrist.
