I have always been overly sensitive to isocyanides. A good respirator is not enough, no booth, and I am just a hobby guy that has done more than a few over the last 30 years. I have several cars to do, and I will just have to get a fresh air system. I started looking on the net yesterday, and I did see some complete for a round $450. turbine compressor, hood, hose ( needs more than 25 ft!).... That I can afford, but I was afraid I would have to spend twice that.
Anyone with opinions, input, experience ?
 
your mopar didnt come with the fresh air vents under the dash?

or are we talking about paint booths here?

That's a tuff one for me I am not sensitive to isocanides but maybe check into an oiless compresser or a fan and bring air from out side to your mask. Been in a paint booth most of my time and never thought about it.

Fresh air system piped to your full face mask. I have NO paint booth like all hobbiest. A good respirator with correct filter is OK for anyone that is NOT sensitive to these chemicals. I have also been told the effect of such as isocyanides is cumlative also.

Hit google auto fresh air system. It is a turbine compressor, and a hose to your full face mask with a hood, no doubt the more $$ the better the unit. Yes same idea as scuba, you are breathing fresh non contaminated air.
 
This is a older post ,but I would like to know what you ended using and how you like it
 
Who cares how much it costs......Buy the best. Best investment you'll ever make in your "life".
 
This is the one I used daily as a painter.
