Probably better off getting your own anyway, the ones I got offered where shite, bought a pair of black dewalt riggers for £40, theyve lasted me years, used to only get 3ish months out of my "issue" ones. For example.

most places supply overalls normally ull have to supply your own footware. my work supplies neither resulting in me seldom having a boilersuit lol
can i offer some advice?
ull love your job now, but in a few years time ull realise its a pretty shit job looking at the bigger picture.
money is nothing special for the work, when you have your boss having meetings every month about your effeiciences.
loads of stress for not alot in return imo..
def one of the worst trades imo
im a panelbeater, if i had the choice again i would have done paintwork, more options available to you and easier to make times, less tools to buy, easier to do homers etc etc etc

can only go by my own experiences and those i work with
at the start u coudlnt have stopped me, couldnt beleive that i could get paid for doing something i loved so much
years on. im not happy, at my peak money wise ie not gonna get any more and am stressed to the max
like for instance 2jobs i did last week
206 roofskin 3.5 hours
bora 1/4 panel 4.5
times are nitemare. every second is accounted for with time management systems
