Speaking of solvents, which vapor masks do you use and from where?

[Mikey P]

3M?

Replaceable cartridges?

Anything else better or cheaper or readily available?

 

[Nate The Great]

The shirt mask..... Works great and always available.....

this is what I use when spray painting and some of the nastier demo we do.
if you shop, you can find the mask with cartridges for around $75 or less

replacement cartridges can be found for $12 bukz a pair on fleabay.
I get mine from Sherwin Williams (my SW rep gives me the $12/pair pricing)

Buy peel off face shield liners too ..if you shop, you can them for about 50 cents ea in bulk

or just go the Harbor Freight with a 20% discount coupon and buy the one that's on sale


..L.T.A.

We buy ours from Jondon. They have pretty good pricing on 3-M and North. Both make good masks.

I'd get the P-100 stack cartridges which will cover you for organic vapor. Get a zipper bag for the mask or unscrew the cartridges and put them in the zip lock bag. If you don't then the cartridges will get used up filtering all air they are exposed to.

Disposable mask for organic vapors. A bit more expensive to use, but no maintenance records required by OSHA.
