Narrative

EE was using a spray machine to coat the ribs, roof & brattice with a non-combustible material or coating. The tip of the spray machine stopped up while spraying. The 2nd EE was trying to unclog the tip of the machine. When the tip uncloged, the pressure forced the material out knocking the ee's safety glasses off permitting the material to splatter into his left eye.
