Re: Sunburn from the welder???

WTF?  My shoulder is toast right now.  Ouch.  Feels like a bad sunburn.
Only thing I can think of is I was welding without a shirt yesterday, and got that shoulder pretty close to the work.

Can the LIGHT from a welder give you a sunburn?  Or am I gonna be radioactive now or what?

 :screwy:
to give you an idea of how bad a welder can burn you, my eyes where black until i was 17 and i got flash berned so bad the pigmentation in my eye bleached, my eyes are now green, light green

also went blind for three weeks when this happened. no joke man, as a former professional welder, i recomend covering all skin and your face
