I would reccomend you wear a respirator.

Never thought about it myself. Good luck with it.

Before you do you might want to read this.. it is a interesting read, and you might end up using something different.

If you haven't ordered the paint yet here is the CARC paint that is not as dangerous as the real stuff and has the same quality of finish. : MILSPRAY - Products - Military Vehicle Restoration Paint

Not much real help to contribute, however I remember when my vehicles were being painted CARC white for a peacekeeping mission, the booth operator mentioned that the trucks get so cold during the spraying that the windows sometimes cracked??

I didn't realize true CARC was available outside DOD/ Uncle Sam?
