This video covers some background information on how the original hand guards for stormtroopers and sandtroopers were made and used.

The screen used ones were latex rubber, painted white and glued to black rubber chemical gloves.

You can do that but I would suggest using thin cotton glove liners to soak up the sweat since the rubber gloves do not breathe.

Hard plastic hand guards included in most armor makes need to be attached to fabric gloves. You can use velcro or elastic straps.
