Fiberglass - Safety Equipment

Before working with glass and resin you will need a range of safety equipment. This will including breathing masks, to prevent you form inhaling noxious fumes and dust particles.   You will also overalls or other protective body clothing and goggles or industrial spectacles for eye protection.  In some cases, prolonged exposure to resins and other glass fibre materials can cause skin rashes or unpleasant discomforts.

 

Hooded suits are becoming more popular as they totally isolate you from the environment.   Some hoods have built in breathing apparatus with filters and most are designed so they do not restrict your vision or movement.
