So we've sorted out that dust is likely not a risk for combustion in
the home workshop unless you're shaking out your dust collector bags right beside your furnace/ hot water tank pilot light. Now for the vapours....I try to keep to the water-based stains, paints, etc, but every once in a while resort to an oil-based. If I'm using an oil-based, I crank the basement window open (basement shop). I recently purchased a cartridge-style respirator with organic vapor filters for lung protection. Do I need to be worried about an explosion from these vapors? What sort of concentration is required before the flame will make a big 'poof.' I was planning to use some contact cement on a project. I had purchased latex CC, but advice from this forum recommended oil-based CC. Based on the warnings on the can, I'm thinking maybe this stuff should stay out of the basement shop. On a slightly different note..... I need to attach oak skins to kitchen cabinet sides. How dangerous is this stuff to use on a main floor kitchen. I would close the basement door to prevent the vapours sinking to the basement, and set up a fan with windows open to exhaust the vapours. Thoughts? Steve |
