    Re: Do you use face mask doing detailing?

    Got these from the Homie Depot. $8.50 for 2. Pretty good price. Disposable and for paint fumes. I’ve also read the cool flow is better for hear and sweat.

    For those that do use them, buy them quickly if you can find them. I am struggling to find respirators for my regular work because of the virus. It's so bad that when I did find some, I had to sign a form saying they would not be exported.

    IME those masks with the valves don’t work anywhere near as good as the ones without. The ones with the valve let fumes get in.

    Re: Do you use face mask doing detailing?

    Great thread, I've always been on the fence with regards to face masks but I think this discussion has helped me decide which camp I want to be in. Better safe than sorry!

    Do you use face mask doing detailing?

    With the basic ones i had same issues with fumes. Also get hot and sweaty. Also check the ratings. These ones are rated at filtering 95% of airborn particles and strongly resistant to oils.


    I put one one and smelled some cquartz.... they work just fine. Might be the brand your buying.


    Your right. Home depot was ran throw. Last 2 packs of these as the were more expensive for disposables. Was going to buy on amazon for same price. Added to cart. When i went in next day to buy they went up to $20

    Yes! Anytime there is product in the air from application or removal. I’ve had several sinus infections years ago from not using PPE. Have not had one since I started using it.
