Dust Mask is Recommended

Some form of breathing protection is recommended when working with Advance Coatings Resins. The amount of protection can vary from a basic dust mask, to a respirator with replaceable cartridges, to full supplemental oxygen, depending on your needs.

Dust Masks / Respirators

Respirator

A recommended Respirator would be the Moldex 7000 Series Reusable Half Mask Respirator link: https://www.moldex.com/product/7000-series-half-mask-respirator/ Note that we sell smaller disposable dust masks, not these.

You should purchase a filter for organic vapors such as the Moldex #7300 Organic Vapor/Acid Gas Cartridges For 7000/7800/9000 Series Respirators link: https://www.moldex.com/product/7000-7800-9000-series-respirator-organic-vapor-acid-gas-cartridge/

You don't have to go with Moldex. There are similar products from 3M. Likely any well known name brand will offer adequate protection. I would recommend buying from official distributors for a product like this. It is not worth cutting corners for a proper respirator.

Cartridges should be replaced periodically

Cartridges will over time be saturated with gases and should be replaced. Purchase enough so that you have extras.
