Iso cyanate mask, not air fed
In this
lin
k is a non air fed mask that they claim is certified Iso cyanate safe. Is it likely to be OK?

hmm wonder at what point you'd find out it wasn't?
There's water based paints now that don't kill you and don't react with any finishes. They bodyshop place behind where I live uses
them and they can't be expensive as he's said he'll spray my beatle for £500
Suppose to be easier than conventional solvent based paints

I'm still planning to use non iso cyanate paint. I was just surprised when I stumbled over this mask. I guess its possible to filter out the
cyanate but you've got to have a pretty fine filter.

Is the water based paint cyanate free? At £78 for a 1.5l tin, it ain't cheap.

Well judging by some of your posts i'd have to suggest they have previously been leaking poisonous compounds into your back yard for years!!

the toxins in iso cyanite when spraying can get into your body via your eyes! hence full face air fed masks.
I would not risk it.

We have had to use masks similar to these at work - demolishing a drilling platform in the North sea that was built in the 70s. The paint that was
used gives off isocyanides when burned - through grinding/torch cutting/welding.
Apparently the half-masks are ok filter wise, but as said above the stuff can be absorbed through the eyes, so full ventilated face mask is the only
safe bet.
