I wish there was something similarly useful for working on HOLY FUCKING SHIT THERE ARE EXPLOSIONS IN HERE (car maint.) that still allowed for dexterity and grip.

Yup, I was still in my pyjamas and slippers, so an addendum to your addendum - don't fuck around with heavy shit until coffee has been drunk and dressed accordingly. That "just let's see if all is ready for fixing in place before coffee" is written as strictly off limits for a reason.
As for your problem, the only reliable solution is "COVER YOUR FACE WITH YOUR HANDS AND TURN YOUR ARSE TO THE EXPLOSION" as a failsafe protection plan... your arse carries a large buffer zone to take the impact.
