Safety Tips
Working with fiberglass is common in boat and RV projects, but it requires attention to safety to avoid irritation and injury. Fiberglass strands and dust can cause skin itching, eye discomfort, and respiratory issues if precautions aren’t taken. Follow these simple safety guidelines to protect yourself and keep your work environment safe:
- Wear long sleeves, gloves, and protective clothing to prevent skin irritation
- Use safety glasses or goggles to shield your eyes from fibers and resin splashes
- Ensure good ventilation to reduce inhalation of dust and fumes
- Wear a dust mask or respirator when sanding, cutting, or working with fiberglass dust
- Avoid eating or drinking on the job to prevent ingestion of harmful materials
- Wash exposed skin thoroughly after handling fiberglass to remove fibers
- Keep a first aid kit nearby for skin irritation or minor injuries
- Dispose of fiberglass waste and resin containers following local regulations
