Head protection

Head protection is very important to the bodyworker when working underneath a vehicle or underits bonnet while it is being repaired. A light safetyhelmet,normally made from aluminium,fibreglassor plastic,should be worn if there is any dangerfrom falling objects,and will protect the head fromdamage when working below vehicles. Hats andother forms of fabric headwear keep out dust,dirtand overspray and also prevent long hair (tied back)becoming entangled in moving equipment.Car Repair Talk's forum.
