Title: uniform and clothing for driveway cleaning ?
Post by: Del Boy on January 13, 2017, 10:35:57 pm

I want to get all my uniform / clothing sorted mainly for driveway cleaning and just wondered what are the best items to get.

Ideally when doing pressure washing jobs to keep you from getting wet and covered in crap you need to put on before you start : chest waders, breathable waterproof jacket, gloves, safety glasses, face visor etc.

There is nothing worse than getting cold and wet and come home covered in crap.  Apart that is from getting crap in your eyes and end up in A&E  ;D

Depends on the time of year, in summer we have been wearing disposable paper suits that are used for asbestos removal ( they are not really 'paper' but it the best way to   describe   them) the keep you a lot cooler than full waterproofs and are splash proof.

We also carry waterproof full suits and waterproof trouser. I quite like the waterproof trouser and embroaded polo shirts it's not often on PW you splash above the waist.

Obviously eye protection.

thanks for the reply's guys. I was thinking of getting some wellies, water proof trousers, embroiled t shirts and water proof jacket so looks like I should be ok with that  for now.
