I came across some old MSA Skullgard hard hats that were factory painted. Does anybody know a good way to remove the paint without damaging the finish below the paint to much?
Any product that would remove the paint will definitely damage them and make them unsafe. Why would you want to remove the paint?
Hard hats of both varieties are not that expensive. Don't go cheap trying to save some. Just buy new ones. My personal one is my most expensive and it has an overlay of the flag and an eagle on it with full brim. Still less than $50 if I remember right.
But the plain ones that welders would use with their hoods are really cheap compared to a life or even OSHA fines.
So, are you laughing at me or yourself? I have seen few hard hats over $80. I may have paid $60 for mine but I know it wasn't over that. And the normal 1/4 brim ones the welders wear go for about $30-40.
Maybe at myself! It's one of those brown fiberglass full brim hardhats. Don't know why I bought it actually. Think I was having a good year and needed some more deductions!
That's what thought. The guys around here wearing those pay about $80 for them.
Anyway, we all need to laugh at something these days. Can't take this world, and especially this country, too seriously. It's all nothing but a big joke.
Watch the news in the morning and laugh at the house and senate as they go at it like 6 year old school kids!! Then I think to myself, "We're doomed". LOL!!
I wouldn't fool with it too much...you are supposed to be able to inspect the hat periodically for damage, stickers and paint are not a good idea. Just my two cents
