It works, but is a hassle and very uncomfortable. You cant freely sit in the same spot for a long period of time, you have to run back and forth many times every 30-40 seconds.
 
Not really, I'm only 100 pounds and 5'8'' tall, tall and ski8nny, more exercise will make the armor even harder to wear.
 
yea same here......but for the ppl who need it. not really...you should always wear a mask and other saftey gear, even if you need to fit better into a chief suit.
 
Puh, bad story man! I hope you get better very very soon and I hope that you will not get any further problems due to this resine intoxication.
When I read this I'm very happy that I didn't start with resining the armor parts myself and just bought them. Still smelled a bit when they came and were "fresh" and this was even very nasty under the helmet (but I didn't get dizzy ;), was all dryed ). I imagine how extreme the wet resine is. Uah... hope I never have to smell that. :D I guess with my handcraft talent I would kill myself. *gg* :rolleyes


Again, Finnish, I wish you all the best and get well soon!
Next time with scuba oxygen bottle ;)
 
this is good, because you can sue the company who made your respirator......no wait....thats if you die. oops.

this is good for me, because now i know what to do. Outside. Well Ventilated. No Little brothers (or maybe....)
 
ive never used a respirator... ever and i resin in a shed :( knock 40 years of my life...

edit: o ye i hope you get better and get lots of money off the respirator company :)
 
Okay guys, i Just got an Email back from 3M, i will have to send my respirator to them-.
I will inform you with more as they get my respirator...

Anyone heard of a fan ?Angle it in such a way tha its coming from behind you and to the right and it'll blow most of the fumes away from you. Note: this is not a substitute for proper saftey equipment.
