vapour masks are for pussies, though dustmask essential when sanding

[al_VTR]

living up to your "Hardcore" reputation there Scott !

[reevesy_vtr]

yeah i got one to day ready for sanding and i look at a vapour mask but they were about £15.00+vat. so i got beer and fucked the mask off. smileys/smiley17.gif

[Scott]

fumes are fun but lungs full of very dangerous dust is not big nor clever

[reevesy_vtr]

[Scott]

fumes and beer, just need naked chicks and thats one great fucking nightsmileys/smiley4.gif

[reevesy_vtr]

[Sidesport]

Like Scott says no need for a mask really when using fibreglass! But DEFFO wear one when you start to sand mate!

I have a PROPER air fed mask for painting and got some 3M's for using when sanding filler. The ONE time i did a few hours sanding without a mask i felt so sick after and the next day!

Also were a mask when sanding MDF as there are chemicals in the wood and when you cut the dust is really bad for you!

Good see you getting stuck in with the fibreglassing though!

Chris

[reevesy_vtr]

yeah mate i would not even try to start sanding with out a mask. i will try to do some more in the week and i will put up more pics as soon as i have done more. just thinkg what to cover them in i may just get a good match to the carpet in the car or get some leatheret.

[Scott]

you could heat the carpet up using heat gun and mould it around them, seen it done before to very good effect

[reevesy_vtr]

do you mean the carpet in the car?

[nixy9]

looking good reevesy, where did you get your fibreglass from?

[reevesy_vtr]

its from an american company called Select Products. I know the guy that is that dealler for the uk the company is called 33hertz. They do every think from liquid plezy glass to training dvds.

[nixy9]

is it expensive to do?

[reevesy_vtr]

i payed about £60 for a gal of resin 1 qurt of MEKP (hardener) 2 yards of mold fabric, 4 brushes and 2 mix pots. that was with p&p. it is quit a bit to spend out but it will last for a time. i got the fibre glass matt and stitched mat from ebay.

[Girlscanrace2]
