Abstract The report presents a study to determine respirator effectiveness using practices in spray painting operations. The results are presented of a field survey to evaluate respirator use in spray painting, of on-site tests to determine respirator efficiency in removing paint spray particulates and solvents, and of laboratory particulate and solvent respirator penetration tests. Recommendations are made concerning future respirator research, respirator use practices and improvements in respirator testing and certification.
