Protective clothing

We have to wear protective clothing for certain parts of the job. Sometimes it's just a matter of wearing gloves and a work coat. For other jobs I have to wear a breathing mask or even a full protection suit.

The suit is sort of space age and I wear it when I'm doing coating in the paint booth spraying larger parts. The mask is to protect me from the paint fumes from the spray gun.
