Default RE: PPG Concept

Another question.....

I am aware that PPG Concept Paint containes Isocyanates, extremely harmful to your health. I have been looking for a respirator to use while applying the paint. I am only painting a cowl for a 29% Edge as well as the wheel pants. So, 3M recomends a positive pressure forced air system for spray painting with Isocyanate latent paint. However, I don't want to invest in a $500.00 respirator when something else may work for my applicaiton. I will be painting in an open air enviroment and not in a spray booth. Any thoughts on which type of respirator? I have heard rumors of 3M making some that filter Isocyanates but they don't recommend them officially because the filter may become saturated and fail if in a high concentration enviroment, unlike what I will experience.

Thanks again,

Phil
