Gas Masks?

OK I have this M10M Czechoslovakian gas mask and I have herd that it has a shelf life and is obsolete but the place where I got it from “Cheaper than dirt” says it will protect me against all types of gas attacks- I have used it and tried to smell objects with it, stuff like gasoline and superglue and I haven’t smelled the gas or anything when doing it but when I took it off I immediately smelled every thing, so would that work and does it have a shelf life?Gas Masks?
Even expired filters retain some effectiveness against certain threats. I expect yours would still work against tear gas and other fairly large particles but not against most toxic agents. And remember, it never would do anything for you in an environment without sufficient oxygen like a house fire or chlorine gas leak.Gas Masks?
It might work. Expired milk might not make you sick either, but who wants to bet their life on something like that? Report Abuse

The mask itself may not have a shelf life, but the cartridge that goes to it will. The Navy used to use the MCU-2P for gas masks, the Cartridge un-opened has a 5 year shelf life, after being opened only has about a 8 hour shelf life in the conditions designed for. Since you opened the cartidge and used it, you might as well throw it away and try to find a replacement cartridge.
The filters are good for only so long, it's most likely expired by now.
Ok, no filter is any better than any other. The mask itself is only obsolete if it is made of obsolete material. Get what I'm saying?
The filter is what would have the shelf life. It also depends on what size particles it is rated for. I don't know anything about that specific gas mask. Most things will probably be filtered but smaller particles wouldn't. I wouldn't use it in a chemical or biological attack but it should be effective for most things.

No idea about home made masks but if you tend to have oily skin id greatly recommed the peel-off masks. They dry on ur skin and then become like a thin layer of second skin which u take off. Pores are cleaned deep and it makes fun :D
first of all add 1 tsp of chandan powder(sandal wood powder)(glow),


strawberry juice(bleaching agent+scrub+reduces oiliness),


and little bit of fullers earth(multani mitti) mix well apply for 20 min


wash with cold water


then put some moisturizer for oily skin

Where would be the best place to buy a cheap gas mask?

Not necessarily online.Where would be the best place to buy a cheap gas mask?
What gas are you trying to protect yourself from? A general filter cartridge on a gas mask does not mean it has the proper absorbent. I would contact a safety supply outfit and tell them what specific gas you are trying to prevent inhilation of. There are specific filter masks for specific gases, like ammonia, SO2, etc. Getting the wrong filter is the same thing as not having a mask at all. Look it up in your yellow pages under Safety Supply or Industrial SupplyWhere would be the best place to buy a cheap gas mask?
buggo shops lyke bunnings or kmart(if u live in aust) (if u dont then too bad)lol
Try an Army/Navy surplus store.. they usually have them

Can i spray Febreze mist and refresh directly onto my car seats and carpets? I'm trying to mask the smell of

an awful smelling cleaning agent the valet 'er used!!Can i spray Febreze mist and refresh directly onto my car seats and carpets? I'm trying to mask the smell of
Yes you can. Hope you aren't allergic to it. I can't use Febreeze for that reason.Can i spray Febreze mist and refresh directly onto my car seats and carpets? I'm trying to mask the smell of
Leave you car windows open when possible, to help 'air out' the car. Yes you can use Febreeze directly on fabric (read the instructions on the can for any warnings).





Also try an air freshener in your car that isn't REAL strong but maybe a stick-up under your seat, or a liquid slow-release air freshener that'll attach to your AC vent (I've gone one so smoker smell doesn't hang in my car).





Good luck!
the febreeze is a great idea and works great (i have a mini spray bottle that stays in the car). But I would take my car back and make them fix it first. They are the ones who messed up (even if they didn't know, they will once you go there and tell them) Talk to the manager and if they wont fix it ask for their DM (district manager) number. If nothing else the febreeze works, just dont sit until it's dry and leave the windows open a little to let air in
Yeah spray ,%26amp; alot of it if it smells that bad lol. That what febreeze is for also great for cars. Just don't spray too close you might have a soggy seat %26amp; also like they said make sure your not allergic to the sent.
Well me being the cheeky one that i am, I would take the bloody thing back to them and tell them to get the stinch out of our new car, and yes try the fabreze, they also make it in an allergy formula,


Cheers Mate
Yes you can use it for that. or open all the car doors and windows and let the air in. In a safe place of course in case someone decides to steal your car.
Just open the doors and move the car around so the sun shines in for a whole day The odor will lessen. Fabreze tends to be oily and cause dirt to stay in the fabric.
Yes. There is also a Febreze made especially for cars. You can check out AutoZone to find little air fresheners that clip to your air vents.
It is pretty safe on most upholstery just be careful that the 2 chemicals don't mix.





Make sure that the 1st one is fully dry.
Yes you can, it does no harm to the fabric and gets rid of all sorts of nasty niffs!!
I spray it directly on to all sorts of upholstery and curtains - just leave it to dry before you sit down or walk on it.
Yep spray away, but don't sit straight on it you don't want a wet bum!!
Yes, and you may want to try a product called OdoBan, I just love the stuff
Yes.

  • What kind of defogger stuff should I use on a snorkel mask?

    Not to gross you out, but I have always spit in my mask, rubbed the saliva around the lenses, and wore it. It stops the fogging. The buddies I used to dive with always did the same thing.What kind of defogger stuff should I use on a snorkel mask?
    Use your own saliva. Alternatively, if that doesn't appeal, you could go and buy a commercial defogger, but really, save your money. Just rinse, spit, rub and rinse again.What kind of defogger stuff should I use on a snorkel mask?
    saliva works great. Spit into your dry mask and then dip it in the water to rinse it.
