[QUOTE="timetraveller, post: 97907, member: 456"] The comments about poisoning oneself with paint are SERIOUS. Like most other bikers I am not averse to a risk or two but all the paints which are two component that I have used continue to set due to a chemical reaction, not the evaporation of a solvent. They are quite happy to do that in your lungs as well as on the bike. I too have been in the 'propped up all night fighting for breath' scenario and it is not good. I treated my self to a belt mounted, one inlet and two outlets hose adaptor with filter, I would not trust the filter to do anything useful with two pack. But I made the two outlets different types of female connection.. One goes to the spray gun and the other to the air fed mask. This way I cannot use the spray gun without using the air fed mask. I am the kind of person who without this would be "I'll just do this quick job and it wont hurt me" and end up killing myself. I also ensure that the compressor is not in the same place as the spraying is taking place so that it cannot pick up spray in the atmosphere. Be warned. [/QUOTE]
