: Hi Dan,

: If I could intervene a question directed at your response;

: I just talked to the folks at Bristol Finish in Florida today. They make a 2
: part urethane coating called Tradtional Amber Urethane. I talked to a tech
: guy and he said it would be fine to spray Bristol wearing the 3M Organic
: Particulate respirator cartridge 6001 on a 7500 series half-mask
: respirator, with the bottom of the garage door cracked open. Would you say
: this is accurate? I don't want to risk my life for the finish on my wife's
: boat.

: BTW, I brushed and rolled Bristol on my last boat, but did not like the
: results that offered, that's why I'm thinking about spraying with an HVLP.

: Brad

Pardon me for butting in, I've seen their ads but never have used their product. I just looked up the MSDS on that product though and it's isocynate based. I'd highly suggest following Dan's advice, do not spray this product without a supplied air respirator. Roll and tip outside with a half mask with an organic cartridge would be ok, spray can be lethal without a fresh air supply.
