I have very bad allergies to rubber and urethane. Contact or inhale .i have built two new wood tunnels done the epoxy coat and scrape but i need to finish these . I can't wear a paint mask and spraying urethane is a no i tried and the reaction was bad .before i pay someone to clear these for me i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions of other ways of clearing .that will hold up to nitro .maybe something brush on ?
 
Epoxy will not keep water out long term. It will slowly get moisture inside, making the wood turn a red color, and eventually rot.
 
They have respirators made of silicone instead of rubber.

You can use a supplied air vented hood. A Tyvek material with windshield and air hose coming in.

Most clears strong enough have isocynates, which is most likely you're reacting to.

PM Mike Z, he's dealt with allergies to finishes for a long time.

I found a local auto body painter who will shoot the clear for me at a reasonable price. I hate farming it out but it's finally getting done
