3M also suggests these additional precautions for additional protection in the paint booth:
- Work with your local 3M representative to help you decide on the respirator options that are the best for your employees.
- Ensure that all employees required to wear tight fitting respirators are fit tested on the product prior to use.
- According to an article published on the center for disease control’s website, ‘there is evidence that both respiratory and dermal exposures can lead workers to become sensitized to isocyanates,’ which make gloves, protective coveralls and eye protection important pieces of PPE for any painter **
- Ensure the paint booth is properly vented and sealed to help reduce the flow of harmful chemicals into the shop
