Respirator

Do any of You guys use a respirator when working plastics or do You have a vent system? Would like to know what You do. Thanks.CF

it would be a good ideal to Van anyplace that you are working with plastic . We have put a ceiling fan and to blow the fumes on outside if you have a place where you can put a stovepipe vamped do so. So it will suck the fumes right out of where you're working take every precaution. There is not to breathe in the fumes.

I have a ceiling fan in my garage where I have been heating plastic. It runs wide open but I have gotten the scratchy throat a couple times so I know I have gotten some fumes.CF

you need to get a venting fan to blow outside if you have a window you can take a piece of plywood in mount a fan blowing outside it would be easier to install a venting fan you can get one fairly cheap at any hardware store . My shop is big so most of the fumes. We'll go up to the ceiling but I definitely need to install venting fans in my shop in the summertime I opened up the two big doors to fit the whole shop. So this is a project that I have to do also . If you are not going to do it pouring plastic full-time I wouldn't go to the expense just open up doors and windows.
