what can happen when ya dont pay attention:thumbup

yikes.

That’s why u need the proper PPE and correct cleaners for doing this shit.
Ya u can weld but how smart r u about it.

my next investment. will be an add-flo set up for my hood.

add-flo is a self contained air filtration system that pumps fresh filtered air in to ur sealed hood. made by speed glass
miller also just recently came out with oe also . waiting to check out there system b4 i make a purchase.

I know add-flo is 1,700 or so. the miller is suppose to be a few hundred cheaper.

Hank, I have the Adflo. I bought mine used and retrofitted it to my Speedglass 9000xx for under $600. It’s nice to breath fresh air when welding :slight_smile:

I’ve actually been stupid in the past and have done this with brake cleaner before. I’ve cleaned and flashed it off and waited a duration before welding and have had caustic fume flash in my nasal cavity that burned like nothing else. I would not doubt that some of my asthma related breathing issues now are directly a result from this and I’m certain repercussions will be there for me down the road. Highly stupid and extremely dangerous.

Jesus man, the everyday guy welding out in his shop would never think of something like this. Good post man. +rep.

So true.

wow. i hear about welders ending up with real bad health problems later in life because theyre inhaling all kinds of nasty ass fumes during work.
