Your hands will be working with the fiberglass during the entire process, so it's important to keep them covered. Wear thick, durable construction gloves when handling, and especially while cutting, the fiberglass. When cut, fiberglass particles may enter the air and lead to rashes and body irritation. Sharper particles can even scrape or tear the skin. To avoid this, wear loose, long-sleeved clothes that cover but don't stick to your skin. To protect against unintended cuts, make sure to tuck in your shirt and avoid clothes with dangling sleeves. Your eyes can experience severe irritation when exposed to fiberglass particles. To keep yourself safe, wear clear goggles or similar protective eyewear when working. If you wear prescription glasses, make sure to put a pair of goggles on over them. When inhaled, fiberglass particles can lead to general soreness, throat inflammation, and long-term breathing and lung complications. To protect your nose, mouth, and throat, wear a snug dust mask when working with fiberglass. If available, use a respirator mask designed specifically for woodworking and sanding. When cutting fiberglass, make sure you're working in a clear, spacious area such as your driveway, garage, or a woodshop. If inside, make sure a door or window is open so dust particles can escape.
