Deciding Between a Full Paint Suit or a Painters Lab Coat

If you are a professional spray painter working in an auto body repair shop or spraying other types of paint surfaces, there are many reasons why you should always wear a paint suit. But you may have some trouble deciding between the two different styles of spray paint suits: a Full Body Paint Suit or a Painters Lab Coat.

Disposable paint suits like painters' coveralls or jackets help protect painters from hazardous chemicals while painting and sanding automobiles, boats, planes and other types of vehicle repairs. Full-body paint suits and coats provide a particle protection barrier to protect against dangerous chemcals being absorbed into the skin. 

Here are some advantages and disadvantages to help you choose between a pair of paint protective coveralls or a lab coat.
