dwayne Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 you really should consider it, i've seen them for around £20. granted, its a lot more than 99p but a hell of a lot less than a set of lungs good luck on it mate, i'm spraying mine myself at the moment so i can appreciate the work involved when trying to do it at home with limited resources (doing mine in a wooden shed lined with plastic) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwayne Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 i did think about it mate but so far i have 240 pics of various stages and wouldnt know which ones to use. also, if it all goes wrong and i dont have a thread i can pretend it never happened so far only the boot spoiler needs repainting cos when i was flatting the laquer i went too far and ended up back on the primer on the edge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesupraboy2 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 paper masks with small filter on front will be fine for a single job. Im not talking about the full cup ones that dont have a little filter on the front as they are crap. the paper ones with small filter on front are designed to last one job. Can get them from B&Q etc... for under £5. By the way you know how well they are working by the colour of your boogies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 (edited) I test these for a living - we give them the CE mark. As said already the 3M type ones are ideal we do all 3M's testing, if you're being a tight arse though at least go for a 'P3' classed half face mask. The ratings are P1, P2, P3, with the P3 being the best. The 'small filters on the front' are actually exhale valves that disperse the CO2 you breath out The rating will be a P3V or P3CV, these denote 'valved' and 'carbon valved', the carbon valve holds back some of the odour. You have fold flat and moulded ones, the folt flat are pretty shite really for this job and you should be at least looking at the moulded one use jobbies.
