Episode 50: When Do You Need an FFP3 Face Mask in Pottery
Pottery is a very safe activity but there are certain times when Potters need to protect their lungs from fine powders. That’s where FFP3 face masks come in.

When sieving plant ashes.
When scraping dry clay.
When applying glaze to pottery by spraying.
