Re: ISO-free primer

Hey Footstomper, thanks for the reply. I know all paints are full of nasty carcinogenic chemicals, but I’m concerned more about ISO’s because they have been known to “potentially” cause sudden and severe asthma attacks as well as other long term damage...and there is no filter cartridge on the market that filters them out. Polyester primers are activated by methyl ethyl ketone peroxide which doesn’t contain ISO’s.

If I had a way to force fresh/warm air into my garage and keep the fumes down it’d be less of a concern. But as it is I’ll likely be spraying and then vacating the garage until it’s fully cured, then turn on the exhaust fan and clear the air. 5 star sounds great and the right price as far as urethane primers go, but I’m wondering if there is an iso-free option people have used with success. The price isn’t a huge concern since I’m saving a few bucks doing the work myself.
