Possible Stupid Question Time - Is this Asbestos?

[krela]

Rule to stick to - if you don't know what it is, stay back!

This is the obvious answer. Unless you're an expert on asbestos you aren't going to know, even the answers on here are random and not based on any real knowledge and that's how accidents happen.

Basically, if you don't know for sure, don't say anything.

Even if it is fibre glass, you still don't want to be messing about near/with it. Fibre glass is nasty stuff!!

Seems to be many different opinions on here, so i am glad to see that i am not the only one 100% up on what is or is not asbestos.

I shall stick to the rule of if i dont know what it is...stay the f00k away from it!

You did the right thing Dude, if in doubt, keep WELL away!!! tread gently on the way out, try not to raise dust, hold your breath ,do whatever it takes to stop the damn stuff gettin' in your lungs, whatever it is..

Fibre glass for sure but I'd bet there plenty of asbestos around any old hospital mask up when you can
