Yeah, I was a glaze sprayer at a "will be un-named ceramics factory"... Despite the respirator and ventilation booth (often on the fritz, I might add) I would spray upwards to 5000 square feet of architectural tile a day with lead based and cadmium based (no substitute for a cadmium red) glazes. Skin contact? Ummm, the shit was coming out of my ears... no kidding. Any wonder that historically a glaze sprayer will only last a few years at this place before they are moved. I lasted 2 before I quit. Sorry Sam, a little paint contact won't do shit. A daily bath? mmm, probably a different story. Really a shame about that job as the benefits and pay were pretty good (especially the benefits, go figure). Hell, might go back to the job when I head back to California. Chuckle.
