Are there any air filters or masks that can filter pesticides out of the air indoors?

Are there any air filters and / or face masks that can cleanse indoor air, to the extent of even removing toxins and chemicals and producing only clean oxygen? I'm concerned about the lawn pesticides constantly being used around my home penetrating the household and contaminating the indoor air. Neighbors have refused to comply with wishes that they convert to an organic means of lawn care - hence, I need an indoor air filter of some sort capable of sifting out pesticides and others chemicals. Do any air filters with this ability exist? If so, please tell me the names of them.Are there any air filters or masks that can filter pesticides out of the air indoors?
You can never produce clean o2 no such thing unless you get a oxygen tank but its dangerous for you, you can get oxygen toxicity if you use it without any cause other than to get clean o2. Our air itself is filled with chemicals ex: pollution. Anyway, you should complain to department of health. For now get a air purifier see if it helps. GoodluckAre there any air filters or masks that can filter pesticides out of the air indoors?
i DON'T BELIEVE anything that would work would be affordable.......there are clean rooms in research labs..............cost a lot of money...............

the ones i have seen all refer to inside air problems; the source of your problem appears to be outside; are these folks your neighbors? Are you on talking terms with them? I don't know why they should be using pesticides on their lawn all the time creating the problem. It is not a good practice as it easily seeps into the ground %26amp; then into any ground water %26amp; into pipes etc; could you perhaps let them know it is causing you problems in your home, state your concerns, %26amp; then offer to check out green solutions that might be cheaper, more effective, %26amp; solve the situation for you. Especially with Earth day %26amp; all, everyone is looking for things other than chemicals! The hepa filters for in the home, always state: normal household problems; but you might check out consumer reports to see if there is one available that I am not sure of. They don't pump oxygen out, they remove the dust, impurities, etc, from the air inside.

Can expired C2 and C2A1 filters (m40 and MCU 2/p gas masks)protect against most biological attacks and teargas?

All i really want is protection against tear gas and most biological pathogens, but i have also read that because the C2 style filters use radioactive chromium as part of the filtering agent and using it would be more dangerous than going without a mask (due to the chromium's decomposition and or expiration), is it worth getting these older filters or splurging on the expensive ones (in which case i would have to hope for a an N.B.C attack as an excuse to use them)Can expired C2 and C2A1 filters (m40 and MCU 2/p gas masks)protect against most biological attacks and teargas?
if its expired they dont work anymore and why against tear gas? it only makes your throat burn and you eyes water

    What are the best air filters, air purifiers and face masks to use during pregnancy? my bf is a smoker.....?

    and the masks we bought you can still smell the smoke through the mask. We also have two air filters in the bedroom but they don't really work as well as I would like them to.

    Lol, I hate it when your asking info about a question and some1 answers u with a lesson.


    Anyways, check sharper image. I think their products are good, they have good reviews. Also check brookstone.What are the best air filters, air purifiers and face masks to use during pregnancy? my bf is a smoker.....?
    If he must smoke inside (and he shouldn't, but...) check into getting a Trane Clean Effects air cleaner. Its attached to your air handler and it removes 99.98% of allergens from the filtered air. Since its attached to your air handler, all the air in your house is sucked through it and filtered. I have one in my home. While its pricey (around $1,400.00) its not something you have to change every month. It removes particles as small as .1 micron. How small is that? 20 million particles that size could fit into the period at the end of this sentence. No other filter is as strong. Its 1200 times stronger than the little air filters in your bedroom. It has worked amazingly well. We're talkin, I don't even have to dust anymore! Best of luck.
    make him go outside if he wants to kill himself, don't let him kill you and the baby in the process





    2nd hand smoke is very bad for a developing fetus, can cause asthma, low birth weight, be born early, allergies, susceptible to sinus infections, ect. and many of things might not show up at all till the baby is 3 or 4 years old.
    Nothing will fix the problem the way you want. Smoking is very dangerous. I am amazed you put up with it! Face masques will not do the trick.
    tell him to respect you and not passif smoke

    Are gas masks filters safe?

    after the filter has been used, can i still wear it for looks? or could it kill me?Are gas masks filters safe?
    Wow a question about my job....





    Anywhos, if the canister has just been exposed to CS or any other riot control agent, wear it all you want. If it has been exposed to VX, G, blister, etc. agents you won't be able to keep it anyways.





    The canister just absorbs the agent, it doesn't neutralize it. Once you get to your unit they will have TONS of training canisters that I'm sure they will have no problem giving you. Hell you can buy them on E-bay, just look for C2 or C2A1 canisters.Are gas masks filters safe?
    All depends on who used it and for what. I wouldn't be using NBC (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical) guru's crap. God knows what's on it. If it was just used for tear gas, have at it. Wouldn't recommend it though. If you have no idea what it was used for, rule of thumb is if you don't know, don't touch it.
    Your NBC officer will tell you what you can and can't do with your protective mask and filters. There has not been a chemical attack on US forces since WWI. Well other than spraying Agent Orange on our own troops in Vietnam.
    NO.

    Good brands of filtering masks for bikers?

    I've seen gas-masks that are camouflaged with a bandana - they supposedly filter car fumes, diesel etc

    Sorry I couldn't help with the gask mask idea. Personally I can't see being able to ride with one of those. Maybe it was just a respirator used for paint fumes? My Bandito does just fine at keeping me warm and breathing fine. There's a breathable piece of foam in the mouth area that does a fair job of filtering about as good as a dust mask. Maybe check them out. http://www.banditosusa.com/index2.htm

    If you could find one with charcoal in it that would take everything out.


    Maybe they spray 2-4-D that really stinks. Not very toxic but I hate to smell that too. Maybe you could get them to use round-up on the weeds that has no smell and will do a great job on all weeds. You have to spot spray roundup however. But round-up would not bother you at all.


    He maybe spraying the entire yard that is kind of an overkill. I would rather see a few dandelions!





    Yes, charcoal is used in a pesticide mask with a simple cloth filter before that.





    You want the activated charcoal filter. You will have very clean air with that and will take out all the pesticides.





    No charcoal will not hurt you. Even when it is used to clean drinking water. I asked a doctor if the charcoal will hurt you if you drank the black charcoal in the water and he said no. You don't want to drink it all the time though because it will absorb minerals and vitamins from you.Are there any air filters or masks that can filter pesticides out of the air indoors?

    Are gas mask NBC filters reusable?

    I've been looking at gas masks lateley because in the coming months, I'll be cleaning out at least 1 mold filled trailer and probably encounter more asbestos than I'd like to try to filter through a handkerchief. I just have a question about the NBC filters. After a few hours of use, can they be cleaned out and reused, or will I have to buy replacements regularly?





    Serious answers only folksAre gas mask NBC filters reusable?
    You can buy reusable canisters, but the effectiveness is diminished with reuse. I recommend just having a spare. Military experience.

    Czech M10 gas mask filters?

    Hi, I just got a Czech M10 gas mask and was wondering that if I took the filters out of the foil and used them a little bit, what can I do to store them so nothing bad gets into them or whatever happens to filters when they aren't sealed off?





    Thanks, Lincoln.Czech M10 gas mask filters?
    the OM-10 NBC mask should be stored in dry conditions, filters removed, packed in original foil. once the NBC threat occurs, the filters are to be fitted into the mask and be ready for use. if you already opened them, store the mask in the its cover, and be sure you have an extra pair of packed filters to be ready to replace the used filters once the threat is imminent. use the opened ones for training purposes.





    i think there are special training mockups of the filters, as well.

    My dad had his first chemo 4 lung cancer on may 9th, is it safe for him to mow the yard with a filtering mask?

    While maintaining your M17-Series Protective Mask, you find that the two filters have different lot numbers?

    What should you do?





    a. Continue to use the filters with the understanding that they are only good for training.





    b. Look in SB 3-30-2 to ensure the lot numbers are listed as serviceable.





    c. Disregard the lot numbers as long as the filters are not damaged.


    Replace the filters with a set that meets the serviceability criteria.

    Your filter should just screw off, and there should only be one on either side. The valves for the mask are a different story.

    M17A2 gas mask does water filter?

    Hi, i want to get a m17a2 gas mask but i am worried about the water does it filter from my canteen to my mask? i don't to drink radiated waterM17A2 gas mask does water filter?
    Ok dude here is the deal. I was in the Marine Corps for 6 years in the Infantry. The Gas mask has a carbon filter which does not filter the water. Like the other guy said there is a drinking tube that is folded up in where the one way valves are that let the air out and not let air in. What he didn't tell you is that the drinking tube only hooks up to a Standard issued canteen. there is a cover or supposed to be a cover on the very top of the canteen which covers a hole and plastic that hooks up to the drinking tube. You hook it up and then turn the canteen over and gravity pushes the water into the tube and you drink it. I have done this so many times in the gas chamber with tear gas pellets. I was in charge of my Battalion getting Gassed. Oh and by the way just hope you never run into something other than tear gas with those masks because most of the chemicals weapons that would be used, well the carbon in the filters will melt and not work as little as 20min to 2 hours. Now that is good because it gives you a chance to get out of the ';Kill Zone'; but most of the weapons don't just come down and drop gas they explode and then release the gas, chemical, or nerve agent.








    Hope that helpsM17A2 gas mask does water filter?
    no, it's just a tube that's on the inside of your mask and goes from your canteen to your mouth. it doesn't filter, think of it as a straw you can use with your gas mask on.

    How long can you use a twin set of P100 filters on a half mask?

    My job requires I use a P100 mask (99.97% resistant + resistant to oil). The mask has two filters on it. I'm curious how long (hours) I can use it before I should replace it.





    A few people have told me that when it becomes 'a little more difficult to pull air through them'. Another said 'R100 masks can be used for 10 hours, P100 (added oil protection) should last for 20.'





    Anyone know?How long can you use a twin set of P100 filters on a half mask?
    There should be recommendations on the packaging for the filters themselves, but it really depends on how often the mask is used, and how much exposure you're covering. Obviously lower exposure and infrequent use will extend the life of the filters. Changing them when they get clogged means that you're already inhaling particulates, which defeats the purpose of the mask.

    Then, I was reading the Homeland Securities page on Gas Masks, and low and behold there was a picture of the exact filter I own.

    Is an expired/compromised gas mask filter still usable for cosmetic purposes?

    I own an Israeli gas mask with a NATO filter that I bought and popped the tab on in late August. I bought the mask with no intention of actually using it practically, it was part of a costume idea. I have made a few half-hearted attempts to remove the filtration material in the filter, but have not removed it, and don't have time to remove it before I plan to wear it next.





    I know I've compromised the filter, and am not sure if the filter would be usable at this point given the time it's been open. *My* question is whether or not I can still wear the filter as part of a costume, basically is it still breathable? I don't plan on using the filter or the mask in actual hazardous environments, I just want it to look cool but still be able to breathe.Is an expired/compromised gas mask filter still usable for cosmetic purposes?
    The mask should be fine to wear, unless you stopped up the filter or something like that. The date only means it is not guaranteed for hazardous environments past that date. As just a mask it would be okay.Is an expired/compromised gas mask filter still usable for cosmetic purposes?
    The activated carbon in the gas mask never expires. It can become filled up through use in a hazardous environment but if not used, even if it is opened, it will last indefinitely, It is quite safe to breathe through it. The only problem you might have is that it requires a bit of extra effort to draw air through the activated carbon. This extra effort is normal for all activated carbon gas masks and does not change with use or age
    Outdated or compromised filters can be kept in the mask so it will maintain it's shape %26amp; make it look right. Just don't try playing superhero and go into a toxic gas cloud to save some little old bag lady.





    Put the mask on, make sure it's seated properly and try blowing out %26amp; taking some deep breaths to make sure you won't suffocate yourself.

    You could try using 2 small soup cans painted over, with the open ends covered in metal mesh.





    Maybe attach a small box to the larger one (over the mouth, one corner pointing up) then cut holes on the sides and put the cans through them, angled out and slightly downwards.





    It would look like this:

    This is a prop, right. I mean, you are not going to expose yourself to toxic gas now, are you? Want a filter? Use a vacuum cleaner filter. Instead of a box, get a fancy paperstyle shopping bag from a newsagency and add that. You will have plenty of room for head right down to your shoulders.

    Im pretty sure you would be. As chlorine gas is quite easy to filter out. If it doesn't work, you could urinate on a piece of cloth and hold it over your face while you breath. No joke, your urine stops chlorine gas from affecting you.

    I have a Russian GP-5 gas mask. Is it possible for asbestos to be in the mask... or just the filter?

    The short answer is, ';who knows?';





    Both the Russians and Chinese used asbestos in gas mask filters. Asbestos in filter use was common until the 60s and even in the 70s some pharmaceutical filters still used asbestos that was specially bonded to prevent shedding and pulmonary migration.





    So, the question becomes how old is old? If they are from the 80s, they are probably OK. Earlier than that and I'd toss them.

    Are there any air filters or masks that can filter pesticides out of the air indoors?

    Are there any air filters and / or face masks that can cleanse indoor air, to the extent of even removing toxins and chemicals and producing only clean oxygen? I'm concerned about the lawn pesticides constantly being used around my home penetrating the household and contaminating the indoor air.Are there any air filters or masks that can filter pesticides out of the air indoors?
    they have the clean air filters.but they only clean the air they don't remove the toxins in it.

    What is a good air filter mask to wear to avoid inhaling pesticides?

    Well, it's Spring, and I happen to live in a preppy, suburban neighborhood which means that it's that time of the year for everyone to complacently douse their lawns with incessantly toxic and carconegenic poisons. -_- I'm quite susceptible to the toxicity in these substances, and am curious if anyone can proffer advice relating to purchasing an air filter or mask that can be worn to mitigate or - hopefully - utterly shield one's self from inhalation of these pesticides, as studies have proven the efficiency of these toxins at penetrating homes and contaminating the oxygen therein. So! Any mask I could wear? Any harmful effects of wearing said mask 24/7? Any air filters of any kind? Do humidifiers cleanse the air any, would they be good to use? All input is welcome.What is a good air filter mask to wear to avoid inhaling pesticides?

    What does the filter in the M10-m gas mask use?

    Does the LF-10M Facepiece Filters (M10-m gas masks filter) use Activated charcole? Or is it something else...





    Links are appreciated.What does the filter in the M10-m gas mask use?
    I actually have one her at the house.


    It uses activated charcoal about 95% but there is a another element to help its shelf life. I forget what that part is.

  • How long do gask mask filters last?

    I was curious as to how long a gas mask would last. Say if it is exposed a lot to whatever chemicals and **** and your walking through it with your mask on. How long is the filter going to last before it needs replacement, roughly?How long do gask mask filters last?
    It depends on the gas, the mask and the situation.





    When exposed to a nerve agent the standard MOP4 gear used by the US Army starts to break down in four hours; the filters however last longer.





    In combat it is advised to change your filters once per week; at least that is what they told us in training while I was in the Army. Some gas masks have a connection for you to drink water, but only officers and infantry are usually given those masks. That means the gas mask will last until you need to drink some water and the inside of the protective gear, under all that activated charcoal is a very warm place to be. In that case the lifespan of the filters don鈥檛 matter.





    Filters are pretty good, but dusty conditions like those in Iraq will shorten their life drastically. Basically the activated charcoal layer absorbs the particles in the air and you have to inhale a little harder to pull the air through that filter. As you get more particles in the filter you need to work harder to breathe. At some point it will become better to change the filter rather than keep going. Of course changing the filter in the middle of a gas contaminated area is not advised.





    The efficiency of the gas mask depends on the type of gas and the amount of exposure. Fire fighters usually only carry a 20 minute air reserve and work in sealed environments to avoid inhaling smoke; their masks provide total protection.





    When you wear the US Army/Marine standard gas mask the suit will break down before the filter does. But, if the gas is saran then that won't matter; saran has to be inhaled. However, if the gas is phosgene Cl2CO then it can burn through the filter. If you are a tanker then you hook your air supply into the tank's own air supply and it uses over pressure to keep gas contamination out. In that case you have access to a better set of filters.





    When working with a disease like Ebola the only mask required is a simple cloth face mask which will last until it is exposed, because Ebola is a blood born illness. However, the Spanish Flu is airborne and it is 40% fatal, but once again a simple cloth air mask (like a surgeon's mask) is enough to provide protection.





    If the gas is a blister agent like mustard gas then you need total coverage, any area exposed will be burned and blistered.





    If the gas is Saran then you only need a gas mask, but the surgeon's gas mask is not enough. But, as a nerve agent it needs to be inhaled to work. However, weaponized anthrax can attack the body with any contact.





    If you work for the CDC or a hazardous materials company then you need a strong gas mask like the one the military uses because you don't know what will come your way. However, if you go into a pure cloud of chlorine the lack of oxygen can still kill you, not to mention the chlorine can burn though the activated charcoal quicker.





    I am sorry I can't be more specific with my answer, but you need to be more specific with your question like the type of mask and with exposure to what type of chemical agent.How long do gask mask filters last?
    why do you need to know?

    Why does a gas mask filter expire? Are there any that don't?

    How does a typical NBC filter work and what components within it cause it to have an expiration date? If expired, does it no longer filter certain agents or does it just not work at all? Will it go bad if you open it and don't use it or does it get dirty and thus become unusable like an air filter? (assuming it's not technically expired)Why does a gas mask filter expire? Are there any that don't?
    Layers of carbon contain particles. Over time, the saturation level can accumulate to dangerous levels. Also, moisture can cause a premature breakdown of the carbon. It really all depends on what kind of enviorment you are in, and the amount of Chem/Bio you are exposed to.Why does a gas mask filter expire? Are there any that don't?
    A gas mask works filtering toxic substances through strates of carbon, that retain the poisonous particles. As any other substance also carbon loses its effectiveness due to dispertion in the air
    I think a new filter's carbon is active but over time the filtering power weakens as the bonding points on the atoms are lost due to actual usage or to particles found normally in air. But what do I know I'm basing this on 8th grade science class which I took a long long time ago.

    Where can I get a Gas Mask and filter canisters for a reasonable price.?

    I am thinking about getting some respiratory protection for these unpredictable times. the only place I know to look is ebay and they are asking ridiculous amounts for their gas masks, and the filters cost so much it is actually cheaper to buy another mask that comes with a filter. So where can I get some reasonably priced gas mask stuff preferably online, or in mid Michigan.Where can I get a Gas Mask and filter canisters for a reasonable price.?
    Cheaper than Dirt..Located in Ft Worth Texas..just google it.Where can I get a Gas Mask and filter canisters for a reasonable price.?
    The thing is, do you plan to carry it with you at all times? Because if not, then it really doesn't do you good while, say, you're at work and it's at home.





    Even if you do keep it with you, the odds that you'd actually get warning that something nasty had been released in your vacinity in time to put it on are pretty small.
    While you can find some stuff at the military surplus stores, you'd never catch me dead using that out-of-date trash. There's a reason that it's there -- it's unfit for use in a real-world situation. It's of no more value than as a Hollywood prop.





    When it comes to CWDE, you get what you pay for.
    Have you tried military supply stores
    walking around wearing those will sure draw attention to yourself and it can end badly for you.

    When wearing a gas mask can you suffocate without a filter? ?

    I've been looking at doing a presentation while wearing a gas mask and was wondering can you suffocate without a filter for a gas mask? Also if there is a time limit or any other risks involved? When wearing a gas mask can you suffocate without a filter? ?
    Without the filter it won't function properly as a gas mask.But no,you won't suffocate.There isn't any time limit except you have a tendency to get really hot while wearing one.When wearing a gas mask can you suffocate without a filter? ?
    you will suffocate if the air intake valve is obstructed, this is where the filter threaded onto. regardless with or without a filter as long as there is air flowing freely thru this valve, suffocation is not really possible.





    the only other risk is asphyxiation by lack of oxygen over time during prolong use such as possibily falling asleep and obstructing the filter, or over exertion.





    but generally they are safe to use in almost any condition.
    No, but without a filter it will not do what it's designed for.

    Is it true that you will get sick or die if you wear a Gas Mask with its filter?

    Wearing a gas mask with a filter should not be a problem in any way if the filter is in good condition. Some filters contain chemicals which could cause a problem if moisture or physical damage to the cartridge allows the chemicals to leave the cartridge and migrate to the inside of the mask. Other than that don't worry and enjoy.Is it true that you will get sick or die if you wear a Gas Mask with its filter?

    Do I need to wear face mask/filter when bicycling due to air pollution concerns?

    bike share the road with car. But car exhaust is very dirty.


    do we need to protect bikers from lunge contamination?Do I need to wear face mask/filter when bicycling due to air pollution concerns?
    It might be wise to stay inside, or away from heavily traveled roads during smog alerts, but other than that, the health benefits of regular exercise far out weigh the possible harm from car exhausts. A mask that would be effective enough to filter toxins would be too restrictive to be usefull for exercise. If it bothers you (physically or mentally) then find routes to ride that are less traveled by cars. You're more likely to get hurt by getting hit than breathing car exhausts.Do I need to wear face mask/filter when bicycling due to air pollution concerns?
    Absolutely. You might even consider a respirator.
    I would reccomend it in bad pollute city places yes.
    I'm not sure if it is 'necessary' but it may be a good idea.
    No it is not necessary. Do you wear a mask when you walk down the sidewalk of a busy city?





    So I say no!

    Expired C2 gas mask filter - is it safe?

    I recently bought an M40 gas mask for a costume and it came with an expired C2 type canister. The printed manufacture date shows it was made in 1992. I read that these have some form of chromium that is considered dangerous, which is why the military doesn't use them. My question is if the canister is safe to breath through at all. Is it dangerous to use it just for a costume?Expired C2 gas mask filter - is it safe?

    What is the best mask to use to filter out noxious fumes?

    I make belt buckles and use E6000 glue to adhere the pieces together. It's very strong, and has a carcinogen warning from CA, and so the fumes are not healthy to breathe in.





    I don't want a huge mask, just something that will filter out as much of the fumes as possible....I don't want to get lung cancer!





    Thanks so much :)What is the best mask to use to filter out noxious fumes?
    place a vacuum near your work to expell the fumes -(preferably) outside. Use your head girl.

    What is it with Ichigo's Hollow mask? And what's the story behind it?

    Did Ichigo Became Evil or something?


    Yes i did not watch the Anime for sometime now i ain't got time no more.


    Witch Episode First he got this mask?





    And that's about it Feel free to add anything that Cross your mind if you want.What is it with Ichigo's Hollow mask? And what's the story behind it?
    hollow ichigos mask is amazing its my fave thing about bleach :D ill edit this





    he first got his mask at eepisode 19





    there is hollow ichi and viasard ichi. hollow ichi is when it is not ichi and he loves to fight and kill as he almost does in episdoe 59 to baykuya and to the viasards. hes not evil when he goes into his viasard mode he overcomes his inner hollow at episdoe 124 i think. his mask allows a huge increase in speed and power that can overcome most espada. but still hes only able to hold that transformation for 11 secs like against grimmjow. later on he fight s grimmjow later on and he is able to hold the transformation a lot longer and is able to finish grimmjow once and for alll. its not specified how long he can hold the transformation yet even in the manga they still have not stated his new time limit.





    hollow ichi was created when ichi was trying to gain his shiniggami powers after his fight with byakuya cuz his soul chain was cut and destroyed leaving rukias powers given to him gone. he realizes he has his own spirit power from urahara. it is shown that he has this due to the fact that his dad was once a shinigami and was a captain level 1 in the old days. but he holds that secret to that to ichi and tells urahara to not tell him he was a shinigami. so urahara comes up with tests to bring back his powers of a shinigami. one of them is too survive a fight with that girl (forget her name) he does the 2nd test is to try to climb up a hole before his soul chain erodes away and becomes fully encroached. when the soul chain completely gets encroached the soul becomes a hollow. ichi must find his shinigami powers b4 his transformation into a hollow completes (this is when his first hollow appeareance shows up) the mask starts to form around his face. he meets this beign called zangetsu(the true form of his zanpacto) and tells him he must find his sword which he does. he popes out of the hole that he was in in his hollow mask. using his still broken zanpacto he breaks it off and he completes turning into a shinigami. since he became a hollow for a second that hollow is still with in him. he can only come out when his life is in danger just like the kyuubi :D well u basically get the whole story now :D :3333What is it with Ichigo's Hollow mask? And what's the story behind it?
    It's a pretty long story. For some reason, Ichigo is very different from any of them in the anime - he is a Shinigami and possess immense spiritual power (not hard for him, seeing as his dad's Shinigami too), but it seems that he has Hollow powers as well, and it's just as equally strong as his Shinigami powers. This means that he has both in his grasp.





    From early on, this Hollow mask emerges as he increases his strength (you can see it when he underwent training with Urahara before going to Soul Society). It appears at times when he is in danger and is close to dying. It soon transpires that following the coming of this mask was a Hollow self resembling very closely to him, thus becoming his alter-ego, his other side who was the closest to the darkness, a Hollow's entirety. It - or he - plans to let him become stronger, and quietly remain within himself and learn everything that Ichigo learns, then one day claim the body. But Ichigo put up a good fight, and soon overpowers it, thus enabling him to use his Hollow powers without needing to fear that the Hollow would return.
    I've just started to watch Bleach, it's amazing. By coincidence I've just seen the episode when Ichigo gets the mask for the first time, that's episode 19.


    For now I've got only the information from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ichigo_Kuro…


    Ichigo's hollow spirit is his evil alter ego. The spirit is pretentious and mocks his counterpart's inability in a sneering, didactic fashion whenever the chance arises. He relishes the idea of taking Ichigo's strength for himself, and claims to be the manifestation of Ichigo's instinctive lust for battle and the next kill. He also seems to gain any abilities that Ichigo knows, evidenced by his usage of both getsuga tensho and bankai. Unlike Ichigo, the hollow fights like a berserker, and is able to ignore any injuries Ichigo has previously sustained along with considerable increases to his speed and strength.


    You'll find more information if you search on the site.
    Ichigo is known as a Vizard, a shimigami that obtains the power of a Hallow. The first time it appeared was when Ichigo regained his Death God powers, then again during some of the Soul Society Arch, but returned to his face during the battle with Byauka. Recall that during the battle with Zaraki that Zangetsu gave the sword to a white Ichigo? That was Ichigo's inner Hallow. The mask gives Ichigo tremendous ammounts of power and speed. He was only able to hold it for 11 seconds, but as the battles with the Arrancar showed, he became stronger and better able to wield it. He gained control of it in episode 125.
    ichigo having lost his shinigami powers was trained by urahara to reatain his powers in the process partialy turning him in to a hollow. during the arrancar arc ichigo is recruited by the vizards and trained to use his hollow powers during the training he was turned into a full hollow. in his mind he had to battle the hollow ichigo, if he lost he would disapear and his hollow side will take over his body, and if he won he would be able to use his hollow powers together with his shinigami powers. after he won he returned to normal and can now pull out his mask which gives him a huge power spike setting a great power gap between him and other shinigamis. at that moment he could only maintain his mask for about 11 sec but in hueco mundo he was able to hold it for much longer during his battle with grimjow.
    OK the first time i saw it was in episode 19.....He was in a pit training with Mr. Hat and Clogs...I cant spell his real name right sorry.... if you haven't see it you need to watch it..I don't have anything else to say...Oh wait....Bleach is AWESOME!!!

    How do i make a hollow mask out of paper mache?????

    yea i'm trying to make a half hollow mask out of paper mache and


    and its gonna be my first time making something out of paper mache


    if anyone could help me with materials and how to make a regular mask that would be coolHow do i make a hollow mask out of paper mache?????
    I have made many paper mache and the simplest recipe for mache is glue, water, and cornstarch or flour. To make your mask, I suggest using a balloon. Mache half the balloon, then let it dry totally. After it has dried, you can pop the balloon and you are left with half a mask. I suggest using at least 10 layers of mache so the mask will be thick. I also find it easier to rip the newspaper in smaller pieces so you won't get as many parts that stick up. After you finish mache-ing, you can paint it whatever color you like.


    Good Luck!How do i make a hollow mask out of paper mache?????
    *news paper


    *balloon


    *flour and water


    *or u can use a detergent(liquid starch) called staflo or sumthing like that u can buy at the store for two dollars
    Hi,I agree with maddy.But you can also get some screen at a hardware store and bend it in the shape you want and then paper mache over the screen .good luck


    PS make sure you buy the stiffer screen.
    1. blow up a balloon so it is slightly bigger than your head.


    2. mix up a papier mache paste of elmer's glue and water -- so it's soupy but not too thin, put it in a bowl or baking dish, something kind of shallow and wide.


    3. tear newspaper with the grain (if you tear it one direction, it will tear easily into strips, the other way it comes out all garbly...choose the direction that produces strips) tear a lot, make a big pile...actually, a couple piles with one pile of longish strips, another smaller, etc.


    4. lay out newspaper to protect your work area.


    5. dip the strips of paper in the mache paste and smooth it over your balloon. Another option, is to rub the paste on the balloon, lay the paper strips on it, then rub more paste over that.


    6. do it so it's 3 or 4 layers thick, then let it dry. either hang it up or lay it on saran wrap.


    7. after it is dry, do another set of layers. repeat this process, letting it dry in between, until it is of a thickness that suits your needs.


    8. when you are finished and the piece is dry, pop the balloon and remove it.


    9. To create forms on the mask, use balled up newspaper and masking tape, then do a layer of mache over that.


    10. use a craft knife to cut out a breathing hole and eyes, as well as two small holes to attach ribbon to hold the mask on your face


    11. cover the whole thing with a layer of gesso or plain white paint.


    12. paint, decorate, enjoy!

    there is this stuff i can't remember the name of it but its a clay that you can mold and it drys... you used to be able to get it a Wal-mart in a big tub, but i don't know if they have it any more, but hobby lobby or some other craft store might have it....





    if you find it you could get that and one of those plastic mask, take a craftsman blade and cut the left and bottom piece of the plastic mask out the take the clay and put over the mask the add the pieces the stick off the top and the teeth, let it dry over night the paint it white, let that dry, and paint the red an black lines on it.....to get the indention's and stuff you'll need a sculpting tool, it looks like a scalpel and some have a brush on one end.





    heres some pictures of the mask

    hope i helped, good luck





    EDIT: i just thought of something, you have to do the indentions while the clay is still wet or medium... i fort to tell you that.. some people will wait till its completely dry then try and add details using the sulpiting tool, and the clay brakes...

    So... when Ichigo uses his hollow mask will it be the new one from manga chapter 351- 353?

    I was just wodering because he was like an arrancar and he had a new mask, so will that be the new one from now on or will it go back to the original?So... when Ichigo uses his hollow mask will it be the new one from manga chapter 351- 353?
    yess starting from 351 he willSo... when Ichigo uses his hollow mask will it be the new one from manga chapter 351- 353?

    Does anybody no how to make a hollow mask and and zonpokto from the show bleach?

    the hollow mask im trying to make has to be made out of paper no glue or glue guns and the zonpokto no wood or metal only paper or card boardDoes anybody no how to make a hollow mask and and zonpokto from the show bleach?
    geese the mask will be hard to shape, but try to make it 3d somehow. With the zonpokto, I would definitely go with carboard, simply for the reason that it is easier to shape into an object like the zonpokto than paper.

    did you already look on ebay? and if that doesn`t work, out why not making one by yourself? with paper clay for example shouldn`t be that hard. And if you don`t have any crafts skills you could commission it. Someone on DeviantArt would sure do it.

    How come ichigo has trouble beating the 6th espada with bankai and hollow mask rest of question is in detail?

    and kenpachi beats the 5th with basically the same strenght that he had when he fought ichigo who since then got considerably stronger with bankai but cant beat the 6th with just bankai isnt that stupid of the writer?????How come ichigo has trouble beating the 6th espada with bankai and hollow mask rest of question is in detail?
    i agree with you. the writer really messed up the logic behind the power hierarchy in the series.


    it's as if hollow mask is not stronger than bankai or shikai (the phase before bankai), which makes it useless.How come ichigo has trouble beating the 6th espada with bankai and hollow mask rest of question is in detail?
    Well it was an unfair battle for Ichigo when he fought Nnoitra, the 5th Espada. Ichigo was already severly injured and of course tired after he fought and won against Grimmjow and then he had to immediately face Nnoitra.


    If Ichigo didn't fight Grimmjow, and just faced off with Nnoitra he might've won. And Kenpachi's battle took the longest out of all the other captains. Or maybe Kenpachi was holding back a bit before when he fought Ichigo?
    the reason why it took him so long to beat grim was because he was to caught up in thought about inoue, and that look she gave him when she saw that mask. If you go back to the early episode or the flashback she had after being told off by nell, you will see that she is worried that ichigo will end up like her oniichan, and ichigo is worried that she may consider him a monster. it was stated by one of the vizards that he will be abandoned by his friends when they found out, so i guess that is another reason why he was worried. and if it makes a difference, his mask came off before he defeated grim.
    well as the first answerer said he was tired from his fight with grimmjow also he had not gotton used to the power of the mask. grimmjows the first guy he fought using the mask after he gained good control over it.

    If you count the anime as being part of the story (I know it wasn't in the manga) then Yamamoto has seen Ichigo's mask. And he didn't do anything about it.


    And if you count Diamond Dust Rebellion as part of the story then Hitsugaya has seen his mask, probably, from the very ending fight scene. Report Abuse

    Cannot communicate with router. IP address and subnet mask are both 0.0.0.0 and default gateway is blank. Help?

    Oh, the irony. I'm usually the one answering this type of question.





    Here's the detailed synopsis:





    I just reformatted one of my PC's and installed windows XP.





    I'm on a router and I was initially unable to connect to the internet.





    So, I tried manually entering everything, and many other solutions.





    I can ping the loopback address just fine, but cannot ping my router. It times out.





    I have tried uninstalling the network adapter and letting windows reinstall the correct driver on startup.





    I have dried downloading an updated driver for the network adapter and using that one.





    Using the new driver has fixed one thing: I now have a physical (MAC) address, where I did not have one before (it was all 0s).





    So, I am guessing that the driver is correct (I'm confident that I did install the correct one; I'm not new to computers or anything).





    Local area connection says it's enabled at 100mbps.





    I have tried turning the router and modem off and back on several times, and I have tried different ports on my router.





    I've released and renewed the ip, and flushed the dns.





    I am 99% sure that this is a software problem because this connection was working perfectly fine before I reformatted the computer. So, it is extremely unlikely that any hardware peripheral has failed between then and now.





    Other PC's on the router still work fine.





    DHCP service is enabled and automatic.





    No firewalls installed.





    No other useless connections have been added (ie broadband connection which would not work because this is a LAN connection).





    So, I am unable to connect to the internet and the LAN connection seems to be working. But I can't ping my router, and the dhcp doesn't seem to be working.





    I apologize for the information being all over the place. I just wrote things down as I remembered them.





    This is all I can think of right now, but if I remember any other details I will post them in the additional details.





    If you need any other information I will post it in the additional details and/or mail it to you depending on what you prefer.





    If anybody has any clue as to what might be causing this problem, I would more than appreciated. This has already caused several hours of frustration for me. Thank you very much to anyone who takes the time to answer this ridiculous question.Cannot communicate with router. IP address and subnet mask are both 0.0.0.0 and default gateway is blank. Help?
    unplug the cat 5 cable to the modem and routywer power down both for4 ten minutes and hit reset buttons and reconnect ..if this doesent work then got to dos prompt and type this line








    ipconfig /release...thuis should cleart your problem then reconnecvt router and modemCannot communicate with router. IP address and subnet mask are both 0.0.0.0 and default gateway is blank. Help?
    Disable ur network adaptor and uninstall the drivers.


    Then re-install the drivers (';automatically'; recommended).


    Check Cable.


    Restart ur computer.





    This is driver issue (since MAC address is always present (sometimes u don't see it), and it is never 0 ).


    Then Check configuration using





    C:\ipconfig /all


    and put the details.








    EDIT:


    Actually u are not able to get the IP address from DHCP server. May be it is due to wrong cable. (Do u know the difference between Cross Cable and Straight Cable??).


    .


    If cable is right, then do the following.


    Give the IP address manually (in the same network and same subnet as expected from DHCP). Make sure u are not making IP address conflict on network.


    But check the Cable first.


    .


    And don't worry about the MAC address. It is always there.

    Depending on how crafty you are





    You could make a mask using paper mache





    You could create a platform of a rough face to work from in clay or plaster. Put some plastic wrap over it and start the paper macheA blank mask? ?
    Party stores (costume shops, etc.) usually have this kind of mask. It's cheap, usually a couple bucks for one or two of them.








    They won't always have fancy points and shapes to the mask, but it's not hard to cut them. Just cut with a razor and then sand down the edge to smooth it.

    I think sometimes things happen in life %26amp; we just have to wait. They end up fixing themselves or they end up changing our life into something we find we like better or we get angry %26amp; we stop %26amp; ask ourselves what this anger is wanting us to do/change. So I think when ever you deal with anything technical you can not expect to be 100% in control.Why was my Avatar changed from me standing by a giraffe to a blank mask, without my approval ? What can I do ?
    Well, I think some things in life are not psychological problems and I don't think we can take everything personally. Sometimes Yahoo! and the world stumble across problems. There are many things going on in the background that we may not be aware of. For example, have you ever gone to an ATM machine and not be able to get money out or even use it because they are doing temporary maintenance? Sometimes that is the price of success and the growth of an industry occurring faster than their ability to cope with the demand, kind of like technology and our social and cognitive growth; technology is moving faster than society can cope or people can cope with cognitively.
    Yahoo, like any corporation has Idiots working there who don't do as they are paid to do. Like with the Violation Notices which are suppose to come with What the Violation is so we don't repeat the offense.





    However looking at all possibilities as to why that happens, I'd say ';Ghosts in the Program'; ie ';random bits of code that that collect and form their own thoughts';. (';I-Robot';)
    The piccolos information is not considered as important as you question is to yahoo.When there server is over loaded it will send out your question with out a picture of a Avatar.By the way how do I get rid of the Monkey scratching his arm pit by my side?
    Well I think you need to stop seeking approval from others and just be happy with who you are. It's not your fault that you are like this.

    Are ceramic or plaster cast masks demonic.What purpose do they serve?

    No earthly object is demonic-- even a statue of a demon itself. Nor is a crucifix holy.

    Racist with a plastered on mask, can you tell me why?

    i have this friend who i have had for 13 year's we are very close. but, theres this huge thing that bother's me. she say's she's not prejadice but she make's comments when she's upset about black people and truthfully i have to say it upset's me.





    she dates only black people, her kid's are mixed. black and white. so honestly i dont get it.





    she refer's to them as loud and obnoxious. when theres a time to speak up she say's i should act black cus you know they wouldnt put up wiht any nonsence. she imitates them speaking with a country accent, snapping her finger's all over the place and rolling her head. this is her version of a black person. (i dont agree)


    she doesnt think they have any class. it just makes me flipping up set. she makes soooo many comment's talking about the ghetto ect...





    so why is someone who doestn hold this race in high regard or rather equal regard to everyone else. only date black people have mixed children, have black friend's?





    thought's please?Racist with a plastered on mask, can you tell me why?
    Has she had a relationship (or more than one) with an african-american that ended horribly? She may be reflecting on that one (or more) situations and generalizing them to the entire population. It's definitely not healthy for her to respond this way, especially when her children are biracial and need the support and reassurance of both races, (which is very hard to come by in our culture anyway, but the mother should definitely adhere to this for her children's sakes). Really, my only thought is that with all the stereotypes and remarks, that she has projected her negative feelings of one or more relationship onto the entire race. I hope she can overcome this someday.Racist with a plastered on mask, can you tell me why?
    She sound like a two faced scum bag racist! Enouph said.
    How come you are so close , yet you have such different views? lv Jo xx
    She seems to be fascinated with something about black people - culture, skin color, whatever. She seems to be trying to immerse herself in black culture. She seems to be seeing it through what appear to be anger-based stereotypical images. She needs to mature past that and begin to experience black people as real human beings.
    maybe she sees herself as black i spent lots of with black people at work. And they would often make fun of the stereotypical image of themselves in a very playful manner calling each other N^^^r etc talking in exgerated accents maybe since she is surrounded but that culture thats what is doing rather then be racist

    How many rolls of plaster bandages will I need to make two face masks?

    One roll is enough for a few adult sized masks as long as you don't make it too thick. usually 2 layers is more than enough because ideally you would want to add another layer of clay or plaster to smooth out the bumps and creases which will re-enforce the mask some more.





    You should sand the mask down once it's dry before smoothing it out with plaster or clay. Use a medium and fine grit sand paper. The medium is to remove big bumps and the fine is to soften the smaller rough areas.





    Have fun!

Since this is a school project i can't do another one...So please tell me how u can make eye holes on a dried plaster cast!!!!! Thank you!!!Eye holes on dried plaster mask!!HElP?
    Well, this is a difficult one. I customize mask as a hobby from latex to whatever i can get my hands on but plaster is really delicate. My suggestion would be filling the areas where you want the eye holes down. it would be time consuming but you eventually end up with holes.





    you could use a drill to help but that's not recommended as it can and will crack the plaster.Eye holes on dried plaster mask!!HElP?

    dancing,acting,belly dancing, im shy,honest,outgoing, i like music,peace, (and other stuff)





    but idk how to put it, what are some good ideas?





    thanksHelp, plaster mask?
    Can't u just paint it....





    Use like blues and greens for like peace and use like light blue as a base coat and then put the light green on kind of in a swirlly fashion (dance) and then on the edges put music notes and symbols... and around the eye holes paint it black to show you block who you are through acting and how your shy but you are true and honest shown in your eyes....





    If you need to put the swirls in the plaster...

    I have just bought a loki mask from ebay, it is one sided, is there away to cut the plaster off from the back?

    I bought it from the haunted studios copllection, i saw a video of a guy with one but the back was cut off and made double sided, i want to do it but i need a way to do it so it doesnt break the mask.I have just bought a loki mask from ebay, it is one sided, is there away to cut the plaster off from the back?
    The way you say that, you seem to think it is a real mask with plaster inside when it almost certainly unreinforced plaster all the way through painted on the visible side. Thin plaster is very weak and brittle. Answer #1 gives a possible technique, but if you have no experience casting with plaster, you would probably be better off painting with latex molding compound, peeling that off, putting it back, and backing with plaster because the latex is so flexible.I have just bought a loki mask from ebay, it is one sided, is there away to cut the plaster off from the back?
    Maybe you should consider doing a casting from it and then using that to make a copy in something lighter and stronger like paper mache or something.


    Sure you could carve the back out with wood gouges or something like that but then you just have a heavy and fragile plaster mask.





    Check to make sure there are no draw points that would interfere with pulling it out of a mold and then use plaster of Paris to make a cast of it.


    You will need to coat it with some form release, (pam cooking oil spray? Spray wax? vaseline?)


    After your mold has set you can pull your mask out of it and now you have a negative mold you can line with mache or a similar material.


    After the mache sets you pull it from your new mold, paint it with acrylics and you got it.

    Paper mache and plaster mask?

    so im makeing a mask for our prom cause its a mascerade theme and i made a plaster mask the shape of my face BUT its to heavy so i was thinking of makeing it into paper mache and jus doing it from the mask i have cept i dont want it to stick to it are there any ideas on what i can do?Paper mache and plaster mask?
    You can buy a plastic mask at a craft store and cover that with paper mache strips. It will slip off the plastic when dry and you can paint/decorate it.


    You can also cover the plaster one you made with duct tape. Apply paper mache to that and when dry it will be easy to remove. Paper mache will not stick to duct tape.Paper mache and plaster mask?
    possibly place saran-wrap over one, then apply paper mache, no need to make too thick, just a few layers, same with plaster, they did make them of ceramic and metals, and the paint to suit purpose for prom, you could also cut frame work out of bristol board, and apply paper mache, and there may be some masks at shops for halloween or birthday to use as template,

  • I'm very scared about making a mask from plaster?

    I have to make a plaster mask next week for a class that i'm doing, it will be covering all of my face, including the eyes and the mouth, and most of my nose, except my nostrils so I can breathe. I'm very scared because i'm claustrophobic and I heard it burns your eyes very badly, can somebody please give me advice so I can remain calm while doing this?I'm very scared about making a mask from plaster?
    given that you will cover your eyes it is obvious that you will not do this on your own, but that somebody else will do that for you.


    You should use plaster bandages, they are thin and set fast. You should use vaseline to make sure that the plaster doesn't stick to your face or eye brows. It should not burn your eyes.





    I would recommend to watch a few other people getting it done, before you have it done to yourself. You will see how that goes and hopefully that will reassure you.I'm very scared about making a mask from plaster?
    I've done this to a friend. Here's a few pointers:


    1. Shave everything carefully. You can leave your eyebrows on. You can also leave mustache, goatee or beard if the hair is NOT curly or long. Sometimes the plaster does stick however to some of the hairs. You might loose a few when pulling it off.


    2. Carefully wipe Vaseline over everything which will allow for a good release after it can dried.


    3. Don't do this if your sinuses are clogged or if you can a cold. You'' have to breathe out of your nostrils.


    4. Remove clothing or replace with something old you won't mind getting dirty. Use a large piece of cardboard or plastic sheeting under the head to make it easy to clean up.


    5. Make a round strip of cardboard to wrap around your entire face when laying down, so that the plaster won't run off as easily.


    6. Use slightly more plaster and less water so that the solution hardens within 5 minues.


    7. Laying down, have a friend carefullyyyyy pour the plaster of paris mixture into the face ';mold';, keeping the area of the nostril holes OPEN for easy breathing. Use a short piece of rubber or vinyl tube if needed for easier breathing. No laughing, crying, talking, sneezing or moving face muscles for a good ten minutes.


    8. Allow a good 10 minutes to harden and then slowing sit up and CAREFULLY remove the mold. It's not important how it looks on the outside....only on the INSIDE. After the mold has hardened completely (I like to wait at least 24 hours for full curing), you can pour whatever agent your desire into the inside of the mold to create a duplicate of your face. Some people use a clay mixture of water and clay and allow it to harden for 1-2 hours before pouring it out and allowing it to be removed from the plaster.
