I've started using the Citadel spray can paints for some of my models. I don't have a huge outdoor area to do spray painting, just a balcony outside my apartment. So I'm wondering if there are any precautions to take? Should I use a respirator? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9535145.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9535145.page GMT Citadel Spray Paint Precautions?

With regards to respiratory protection, again typically if working in a well ventilated space combined with the frequency of using a spray paint and assuming your respiratory health is good then you probably won't need a respirator. That said, if you are sensitive to particulates, a dust mask at a minimum may be needed. If sensitive to the fumes and vapors, then a cartridge based repirator designed for fumes and vapors would be required. I argue the more vital PPE would be googles which will protect your eyes from overspray. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9535227.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9535227.page GMT Citadel Spray Paint Precautions?

don't spray into your eyes and you should be good to go, if its the same as the UK stuff. just make sure its well ventilated otherwise you might get a little high.


I once primed indoors for god knows what reason and I can confirm this. Otherwise, the other recommendation I can give is to close your door behind you while priming otherwise you will end up with a house that smells like paint.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9535278.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9535278.page GMT Citadel Spray Paint Precautions? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9536018.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9536018.page GMT Citadel Spray Paint Precautions?

Don't worry ombre, we are here to help also make sure you cover double the area you want to spray in... for got to do this the otherday now my toolbox is red with specs of Zandri dust you should be fine though. its not nasty stuff, so if you spray in a well vented area and not into the wind (brother done this once and came back with black spray all over him ), then you are all salty dog my friend.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9536092.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/735305/9536092.page GMT
