I have been a carpenter and wood finisher for over 20 years now and am just starting my first stripper, a Spring Run. I have used quite a few different respirators in the past but have never found one that is really comfortable to wear for long periods at a time. The older a wiser I become the more I want to make sure I am protecting my lungs. I would like to here form some of you out there that have a mask that you think is great. I have been thinking of a full face mask or even one with supplied air. I have found in the past that the more comfortable I am in the mask the better job I do on what I am working on. Cost wise I am ready to bite the bullet on this one and get something I really like and will last for many years. If anybody out there has any recommendations I woukd really like to here from you!! Thanks, Jim
