• A handheld orchard sprayer or a basic spray bottle may speed up cleaning.

NOTE FROM TODD DUNCAN
Safety is our top priority.
We want our team members, our customers, and our communities to be safe and we have worked hard during this unprecedented time to provide new services and implement new policies that will help keep us all safe while continuing to provide the services essential to support business aviation.
It is our belief that when our methods and frequency of travel get back to normal, business aviation will lead us through the coming economic and societal challenges by providing necessary travel in smaller, safer environments. We want operators and their aircraft to be ready to meet those coming demands and missions.
Let us help you be prepared by keeping you and your company’s assets safe.
• Any other part of the machine you may have touched. • Any blast machine surface you may have leaned against with bare skin or clothing.
• Any other surfaces you may have touched.
3. BLAST SUITS AND GLOVES • Clean and disinfect the exterior of your blast suit and gloves.
• As best you can, clean and disinfect the interior of your blast suit and gloves and dry them. Air drying may be the easiest.
• Don’t share blast suits and gloves!
4. RESPIRATORS • Every part of a respirator is exposed to a blaster operator’s exhalations, coughs, and sneezes. So never share respirators!
• After the end of each shift, blast operators should clean and disinfect their respirators and all respirator components.
• Operators can clean and disinfect their respirators and respirator components either by hand washing or submersion.
• With either method, use a 2% bleach solution or another CDC recommended disinfectant.
HAND WASHING A RESPIRATOR AND ITS COMPONENTS • After using a respirator, break it down into its individual parts, including the suspension system, in-helmet- mounted carbon monoxide monitor if you use one, inner lenses, rubber gaskets, cushions, the cape collar, blast shroud, and other components in or attached to the helmet.
