Gloves that work with the Tesla touchscreen?

Does anyone have driving gloves they use that work with the Tesla touchscreen? I have some Adidas glove liners and my wife some Burton gloves and both work well with our phones, but apparently the technology on the Tesla screen is a bit different. Does anyone have a recommendation for a pair of gloves that works in the Tesla?
 
Pop-top Mittens for me (don't laugh), I love 'em! :)

I got some Head running gloves from Costco that are designed for touchscreens. While it hasn't been super frigid, I've worn them in the high 20s/low 30s and they've kept my hands warm enough. But they really do work exceptionally well on touch screens, including the Teslas screen.

If you prefer to keep using your existing gloves, there are a few ways to get them to work. You can buy conductive thread and sew a spot on the fingers you want to use so that your touch transfers to the outside through the thread. There's apparently also a liquid you can apply to the fingertip of the glove that cures into a conductive spot.

Thanks. I lost my Burton gloves, so bought replacements from Costco. I tried on the Head Gloves, but went with the Adidas. Poor choice, it seems! :)
