Default Composite Hazards

I know that carbon fibre can get into your lungs etc

But what about fibreglass in the cloth and finished state?

Btw, what precautions to take? Where can I get equipment to stop the fibres from getting into my lungs?

Cheers

Default RE: Composite Hazards

Good ventilation and a good mask. It won't stop everything, but enough not to cause any serious damage down the road. You don't have to worry about finished parts assuming that you're not sanding and grinding them.
