Is fiberglass not dangerous for health? Like cause cancer and stuff? I hope I got the wrong info.

With the proper precautions, the fiberglass dust and the fiberglass resin will not affect you.

Maybe we should have a sticky saying what are the proper precautions to take?

When using the resin and hardener mixture make sure you are using a PROPER respirator ( the vapor barrier type ) and safety goggles with latex gloves in a well ventilated area. When sanding you should be using hearing proyection, gloves, safety goggles and a respirator ( the carbon particulate filter type ) and full length shirts or a smock.

After reading this, I think I won't even think about playing with fiber glass since I am not a professional and do not have a garage and all the proper protection. I now remember my oldest brother used to fabricate fiberglass parts for car bodies way back home about 12 years ago but I forgot to ask him about it. (I never even visited his workshop since I was a kid.) Now I remember faintly, him telling me how careful you gotta be etc but I had no clue at that time (nor now even until I read the above post)

Good to know now at least. Thanks for the info.
