How many wear respirator when clearing bait (Etex/D2T)

just getting an idea how many think it's necessary to wear a respirator or lung protection when clearing their baits (use D2T and E-Tex)?
I haven't in the past but i plan to in the future. I'm not sure how bad the fumes are but the smell does get heavy if you are clearing a bunch of baits, i usually do about 6 at a time max.

Thanks in advance for your input,

MS

no I don't , I use sys. 3 clear coat. My spinner is inside a container so that helps a little to keep the smell contained but I do not wear anything. Maybe I should as my hair seems to be getting whiter and I seem to forget a lot.

It does if you add the hardener

If you can't pronounce what chemicals are in it, you should use a respirator and latex gloves
