Questions & Answers

Is it safe to use muriatic acid on aluminum fumes in this manner?

This respirator works for all particulate aerosols with 99% efficiency, according to the included paperwork. It's what I use when I'm putting muriatic acid in my pool. With this respirator, I don't detect any vapor.

Is this mask scented with plastic? Chemical sensitivities are a problem for me. ?

I haven't seen any yet. However, I agree with Jimmy's observation. A 'plastic odor' isn't indicative of any specific chemical, and the questioner is likely exposed to a variety of chemicals, both natural and man-made, throughout the day. made. To be of any use, the questioner should state what type of chemical sensitivity they have, which they can find out by consulting a medical professional.

When used by beekeepers, will this mask protect them from vaporized oxalic acid?

I'm a backyard beekeeper, and I can attest to the fact that this mask helps me treat my bees with oxalic acid vapor.

Is it possible to use a face shield with this, or does it protrude too far?

We have a 3M face shield that fits perfectly if the shield is positioned vertically. Of course, each person's face is unique.

For resin, a mask is required
4/5

I ordered two masks, one for myself and the other for my sister. It came in handy when we were working with resin. We were unable to detect any odors. They are extremely effective. This is our first time using these types of masks, and we are very pleased with the results. The only thing I didn't realize, and it's entirely my fault, is that it's a one-time use item. As a result, I won't be able to filter them. As a result, I'll be less likely to use it. However, the end result is fantastic.

a sense of security This was purchased in order to use oxalic acid to kill mites in my bee hives
5/5

It can be adjusted to fit your needs and does not obstruct your view. During the summer and into the fall, I had no problems with it. To keep it clean, I keep it in the original bag.

5/5

We run a women's beauty salon where we do Keratin hair treatments on a daily basis,,, the smoke was unbearable and sickening,, I bought two masks, one for myself and the other for my partner,, NOW we can't even smell the Keratin hair treatment smoke and all the chemicals, and we feel safe for our health while doing so,, even our customers laugh and like it, saying we look like ALIENS while wearing it, LOL: )) I'll buy from you again without a doubt.

Good Buy
5/5

It was exactly what I was looking for. Excellent craftsmanship. Just keep in mind that the filters are not replaceable. I appreciate that they included a plastic bag to store it in, even if it was just a simple ziplock bag, because it should last a long time if not used frequently. It saves me the cost of purchasing a large box just to store it in. Overall, a good value for the money.

It's fantastic! This is an excellent respirator
5/5

I'm cleaning grout with muriatic acid, which is a very dangerous substance that can burn your lungs. Using a diluted solution (1:1) I couldn't breathe because of the acidity of the solution (5 acid to 1 water). I used to have to hold my breath, run out of the room, come back, and so on, but now I can use the acid without having to hold my breath. It's diluted to the point where I don't even notice it, and it completely filters out the fumes. Don't waste your money on those high-priced grout cleaners - They're almost never successful.

When you're using BIN- it's a good idea to wear something like this
5/5

Everything went swimmingly! I spent five hours using BIN to paint my ceiling. That's some nasty stuff; I'm pretty sure it causes cancer and damage to the brain. When I used this mask, I couldn't detect any odor. When my husband entered, the fumes nearly knocked him out. This mask was well worth the money I paid for it!.

awesome
5/5

I bought it because I work at a dog day care and have to clean a load of pee-soaked towels every day. I couldn't stand the ammonia smell any longer, and it wasn't good for my health. So, after doing some research, I decided to purchase this mask. This thing is fantastic; I no longer have to worry about smelling pee when I load the washer. When I'm dealing with something that's so strong, all I smell is a nice faint library scent, which is very pleasant.
