Default Respirators

For everyone that has used hardener in your paint. What type of respirator did you use. From what a gather it is very important to use one and I have actually seen where only air supplied respirators should be used.

Supplied air from an outside source are very good, but can get pricy.
For the hobbyist a good mask with FRESH charcoal canisters works for me.
Myself, I use NORTH brand, but others are just as good.
it is very important that one gets a tight fitting mask with no leakage.
With fresh approved canisters as one should, you will not smell the paint.
If you can smell it, either the seal is not good or you have the wrong canisters or they are old.
If one uses a surgical mask, paper dust mask or an N-95, you might as well use nothing.
----just my two cents.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
