People without shaker systems, should think about investing in like a sand blasting cabinet since it has ports to put your arms in, to pour and shake the film, and have an exhaust hose connected to it. I guarantee you, someone with money is going to invent and come out with a shaker for those peeps that don't have that whole shaker system and it's gonna be a small box that you clip the film onto, close the lid and push a button and it will shake all the dust off for you and it's gonna have an exhaust hose connected to it. I already have a vision for it.... if only I had the money to invent it and manufacture it LOL
This is why I quit doing DTF years ago and just outsourcing prints. I would use masks, gloves and eyewear. That stuff still made me feel like crap. We all knew DTF was toxic and dangerous.
Not only do you want to wear a respirator (with the correct cartridges and change them often) but you also want to not wear your work clothes in your home, vehicle, etc or have open food/drink in your shop. Remember too that your eyes are the most absorbing part of your body, so eye protection. Be safe !
@@RhyBeats Can't be too safe. I worked specializing in custom airbrush art for decades(17yrs of that in artwork on Harleys) and I've always worn protection. Hate to say that I know of multiple known airbrush artists who have serious medical/breathing conditions because they didn't wear protection. Some didn't make it. So yeah, be safe. 🙂

so that probably means when doing plastisol heat transfers when applying the adhesion powder we should be putting a respirator on as well.
I would think so
Damn I just bought one myself and I forgot to turn on the extractor and yeah felt it in my chest forsure.
Be safe my guy.
I have to add too that those same chemicals are put back into the air (and your hands too) when you heatpress them onto the substrate.
Yep FUMES

Thank you . Yep, protection and prevention is key.
