I know from the forum that sanding a/f should be avoided; also, if one must sand, it's best to wet-sand.
My cleaner's B/F has offered to help me sand and paint the boat to get some spare income, at £10 per hour. Since this year there are some spots below the swimming platform this would be welcome. Usually, there's only about 10-20 small spots requiring sanding around a 10 inch radius to ensure it's smooth, and it takes around 2-3 hours' work (including painting, he'll be there at least a day, with me).
I do not want him to come to any harm. (Also read: I do not want to be sued for damages later). What would be reasonable steps to take to ensure prevent him / me from issues later? Require him to wet sand and supply the best goggles + mask from B&Q? Get him to sign a contract that he recognise that a/f is poisonous and will do x/y/z to protect himself?
Should I pass on his offer and do it myself instead?
