Essential PPE for Interior Paint Spraying | Stay Safe with an Airless Sprayer

What happens here

The presenter puts on a head sock, also known as a balaclava, to protect his head and hair from overspray. Following this, he dons a 3M half-mask respirator equipped with 2071 filters. He emphasizes the critical importance of always wearing a respirator during spraying and changing the filters daily. This prevents them from becoming clogged, which would lead to inhaling paint particles and compromising respiratory health.

What they say

Hide

off and it ruins it. Uh the next thing I do wear my respirator is somewhere around here. I always wear a respirator. So doing new construction. I always wear a head sock. And I've gone through like I think three of these so far. They're really cheap, but I'm cheap. And so I take them off and take them home and wash them. That's how cheap I am. So I just slip on a head sock so I don't get tons of overspray all over my [Music] hat. Head sock on. My bald noggin is protected. When I get ready, I'm going to zip it up. If I need a little ventilation, until then, I'll leave it unzipped. I do like them that they just come down, cover everything. The legs slip down, go over my shoes, and you But you can see how yo big it is. If you got to get in and out of closets, you can't see me talk my lips cuz they're covered. Now, you can read my lips. So, there it is. I'm ready to go. I'm going to go get my mask. Going to go in start shooting a bedroom. So, this is what I look like in new construction. Suited up, all protected. When I'm all done spraying, I can just strip this stuff off and I'm all clean, ready to get my truck. I don't like my truck to be loaded up, you know, full of dust that I just brought out of this job site. The booties, I toss them. I usually don't reuse them cuz they'll tear rip on the bottom. But let's go. This is what the Michelin man looks like or a marshmallow man, whatever you want to call them. Last thing, pre filters. I change them every day. I spray cuz if you don't change them, they'll get clogged. You'll start taking in paint around your mask. So, I'm going to get my mask on.
