Do You Practice “Safe Mechanics”?

April 14th, 2008 by Guitar Ted

Bad Stuff!

Has it ever occurred to you that many of the greases, lubricants, and other chemicals we use in our bicycle repairs may be doing more than helping us get our bikes working? Well, over the years that I have been a mechanic, I have been becoming increasingly aware that the prolonged exposure to certain substances in my shop environment have not been too kind to me. It has changed the way that I approach handling certain tasks at work and at home lately.

That and the whole “being more green” thing has me thinking of ways that I can be more sensitive to the environment and to be more safe to my body. Are you considering more “safe mechanic” measures in your shop or home? Do you take into account what you expose your skin to, or what makes up the stuff you use for cleaning, lubing, and greasing? If so, share your thoughts with us and what you are doing to be more safe and green in your shop.
