face mask filters - organic or inorganic
Sure someone will know this.
Do I use inorganic or organic vapour filters in my face mask for working with polyester resin ?

Organic.
Polyester compounds contain carbon and are as such classed as organic.
Unless the goalposts have been moved since I left school, too long ago to consider.

Er, ones that don't contain carbon.

thanks mix, but not being a chemist. I wouldn't know whether anything contained carbon (or anything else for that matter).
