Lab coat

Recommended Posts

On my last visit to the VA clinic, the nice lady who takes my blood, on an all-to-regular basis, was wearing a disposable lab coat, as was nearly everyone else in the department. I mentioned one would be handy in my garage. (Old British cars that don't leak oil are empty.)

 

She gave me one. It is a "spun poly" kinda stuff that feels a bit like paper, but more flexible and softer.

 

It has knit cuffs and plastic snaps down the front.

 

It's really really handy any time I approach the car.

 

It's surprisingly durable, but can get warm. If you can find one that is breathable it would be great. Unless, of course, you're dealing with ebola.

 

A quick check online shows prices at just over a dollar apiece on up if one buys 30 or so. 

 

If I were building a boat now I would buy one at a time until I found one I really like and then get a boxfull, which should last lifetime.

Yeah, wives just don't understand us...  I have a batch of old, previously "epoxied" clothes that i always wear. Once in awhile, i forget and go out to do some little thing on the boat, and mess-up a shirt or something. Just adds to my pile of old work clothes. Just don't understand why Miss Debbie won't let me wear it to church---it's just a LITTLE glue glob...

 

It is always my FAVORITE shirt too.  Durn!
