Cartridges have filters which will passively absorb gases from ambient air. This means they should be put in a bag, or better an air tight container, when not in use. This will ensure the filter is kept as new as possible.

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.
