I tried using latex gloves one time, and my hands started sweating so bad they just slipped off or got hung on parts. Just get some Go Jo hand cleaner.

The best way to do drum brakes is to raise both sides and remove both wheels and drums but then only take one side at a time apart that way if you have a question all you have to do is walk around to the other side which will be a mirror image of the side you are working on

If it were mine, I would take the MC out and bench bleed it. That way the bleeding process will go faster. If you run into trouble and need a picture, I will take off my drum and snap a pic for you.
