Maybe you should use gold paint less frequently then?

Same here, I use a DCR [Dual Cartridge Respirator]. Its a bit overkill but I get the filters for free, and this way I know im not getting any fumes.

I never used anything to protect me from the fumes for years,
now I use a spray booth with a Hepa air cleaner that takes 99% of the paint and odor from the air and I still wear a filter.........what was I talking about!!!!:what:
