Should I include the Vision Panel?
It’s important to consider how you intend to use your wash down curtains. For instance if you have an unsightly work area then you might not want to choose the clear vision panel. However, if you want to increase safety and allow for a brighter work area than the vision panel would be ideal. Note: The vision panel is no additional cost.
