Omni MBC Acrylic Basecoat Question

jfred · Jan 27, 2016

Hello, I'm getting ready to shoot Omni MBC acrylic Basecoat for the first time and was wondering if supplied air is required for it? I have a hobby air and use it for any paints with hardeners but wondered if the Basecoat required it since it is only mixed with reducer?

Thanks!

if it were me, i'd suit up. wear nitrile gloves too. altho it does not have hardener in there , it has a lot of other stuff that isnt real good for you.

I use that paint and I only use a cartridge type respirator.

No hardener. When I start painting with no hardener, I buy a new mask, or if it is still ok I get new filters. Not much gets in with a good mask, at least nothing that I can smell.

Thanks guys for your help! Am I understanding correctly that Omni's Epoxy primer MP170, or epoxy primer in general does not have isocyanates in the catalyist, therefore not requiring supplied air? (of course it never hurts to use it if you have it)

Omni epoxy does not have isocyanates. Otherwise I would be dead, or very sick when I use it.

Thanks again everyone!
