A rookie question here.
I need to finish a bunch of recently scrolled pieces with spray lacquer. As it is currently 20 degree’s outside, indoors is where I will be. What brand and model of 1/2 face NIOSH approved respirator do you all recommend?????
Thanks!!

A-O or Wilson .with organic vapour cartridges.Try to find a brand that is available near you so you can obtain fresh cartridges easily.Also look for different sizes It is really important to find one that fits your nose well.Some manufacturers market several sizes.Lacquer bonds to activated charcoal so the organic cartridges work well but you still need enough air to breath so ventilation is important
Thanks for the info jako17. I'll see what I can find here in Anchorage.
One other point don't forget the explosion risk if the vapour builds up enough.
