Protect your Lungs.
DIY home improvement is a relatively safe activity if the proper precautions are taken.
Let the Air In.
When painting or using any material that generates toxic fumes or dust always ensure that you work area has decent ventilation. Open all windows and doors and put a fan on if necessary.? Do not allow anyone to stay in the room you are working in, especially people who already have lung problems, children and pets.
Don?t Throw Away the Container.
Keep solvents in their original containers. These have the label of exactly what it contains on it and will be important in the event of any inhalation problems. Be sure that these containers are sealed and stored away safely when not in use. Always refer to the warnings about ventilation on the labels on items such as cans of pastel fixative, spray varnish, and spray mount.
Fire Free.
Other than in themselves doing your lungs harm, smoking while painting or standing close to a freshly painted area is a huge ?do not do?.? No one wants a spectacular pyrotechnical display by mistake! It goes without saying that all containers must be stored away from any kind of heat source.
Dust Buster.
Wear an anti-dust mask whilst sanding a surface or a solvent-respirator if working with solvent-based products. These products are inexpensive and readily available.? Don?t be sorry that you didn?t take the time to protect yourself when it?s too late.? Be especially wary when refurbishing old buildings that may have asbestos product or lead based paint ? both of these are known killers when breathed in.
