[CM] Fresh air breathing systems and paint booths

[ckelly]

I'd just say that welding isn't painting.  If you absord welding spatter 
through your skin, you scream and run away.  If you're going to shoot any of 
the modern paints (acrylic, ureathane, etc) you'll need to keep it off your 
skin - full face mask, paint suit, etc.  You could probably adapt the air 
supply system mentioned to a good paint mask.  

Just don't cheap out - you can really hurt yourself.  ALSO - check into the 
new water-soluable base coats.  You can now shoot the color with just a 
regular paint mask.  You'll still need superior protection to apply the 
clear coat.

It doesn't have to cost $1000:

Caution - Almost all 2k products contain isocyanates and require very good 
respirators during use. These products should not be sprayed without a 
supplied air respirator. Using anything less is a risky proposition. For
