fresh air

What would stop a guy from getting a nice tight full face mask and just running a hose outside the shop/garage or paint booth (no fresh air pump or compressor)? Maybe just a small foam filter on the end to keep bugs out. Ideas?

Death would stop ya......Think about it. If the hose is much linger that 3 or 4 feet long you won't be able to push the co2 from your breathing all the way to the end of the hose. You will be breathing in more and more CO2 and less O2. Not a good idea........

Just use a decent mask with both a particulate and VOC filters on and you will be fine. Most of the paint being used today is alot safer than it was 10-15 years ago.
