Review on 🎨 WORKCARE Respirator for Painting and Polishing Protection by Andy Baudoin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Light weight for easy work

Half face mask with filters. Silicone respirator with head strap and neck strap. There is an adjustable brace that goes around the back of the head and a nylon strap on each side of the brace that holds the top of the respirator in place. At the bottom there is an additional adjustable nylon strap that goes around the neck. The set also includes 2 round filters, 2 filter holders and 2 rectangular fiber filters. All markings are in Chinese but instructions in English for the full face mask are included. I find this respirator very useful for needlework. I spend a lot of time making art out of epoxy resin and the VOCs from the resin often give me a headache. I can work for hours on this respirator without getting a tar headache. In fact, I don't know what those filters are - the labels are all in Chinese. They appear to be good for VOCs, but I'll need someone who reads Chinese to confirm that they offer adequate protection. The filters seem to be a standard size. So when it comes time to replace them (there's no indication of when they need to be replaced), you can probably install all the filters you need. The respirator is certainly light and comfortable, but I don't know if it will be enough for OSHA workplace requirements. All in all, this is a decent half-mask for home use, but it helps if you can read Chinese.

Pros
  • Tools and household goods
Cons
