Qualification: Painter and decorator
Answer: We predominantly paint in white paint and we often wipe our hands on our overalls, so wearing white makes us look cleaner.
Name: James O'Brien
Qualification: None, judging by this answer!
Answer: Can see paint on the overalls, so it prevents you from inadvertantly rubbing up against something you don't want to get paint on.
