I'm fixing up a sandblast cabinet and need to put a new light in it. I have a 600mm flouro batten fitting but i'm sure the tube will get smashed if it's not covered. I was going to track down an external 600mm fitting with a sealed cover, but just putting it out there in case someone has a better idea!

If it had a plastic cover over it it should be ok. Just keep the pointy end of the gun towards the work and not the light

As above. A thin sacrificial polycarb cover over the light should be fine. Just replace when it gets too dull.

Don't forget to earth the cabinet.

Make a cover for the light out of the cheapest, easiest to replace material you can get.
When you fit a new piece put tape over half of it and when you can't see any more take the tape off and you've doubled the life of the 'glass'.

Yep. My cabinet is like that ^^^^

But I used double sided tape and Stck a plastic flexible Perspex over it. Then I replace the Perspex when it's rooted

Have the same over my glass screen
