Just picked up a used pair of 8 foot Power pole Pro's. I didnt realize that the fiberglass pole itself would splinter like mine are doing. I carried them by the poles when i loaded and unloaded and ended up with fiberglass splinters in my hands from them. not big ones but enough that it was an irritant. I see PP sells covers for them, is that why they sell those to prevent it from happening? you can see them on the poles if you look real hard, just tiny hair like slivers. Is there another way to eliminate this?
