I have fiber cement shingles on the garage ceiling. I want to paint the ceiling white and install new fluorescent fixtures to get good lighting in there. Maybe I need to unscrew some hooks or so first.
This would mean nailing staples and fastening maybe 10-12 screws.
Is it just a matter of going ahead, or should I use protective clothing, etc., for these tasks?

It's no good to use nail clips, they just bounce when nailing. It will be screw clips instead. Not much work to screw, use medium-length screws with a drill tip. Wearing a face mask isn't a bad idea; there isn't much dust falling down. Be wary of the doomsday individuals on the forum. They claim it's life-threatening just to almost look at an asbestos board.
PS You can arrange a funnel from a PET bottle placed over the machine's chuck if you're worried. You'll get more junk in you just from taking a stroll down the city's main streets.
