Are you looking for pure styrene to thin out your resin? I've never heard of styrene suppressant.

I get my supplies from US Composites. Select is so expensive that they're my supplier of last resort.

i'm looking for styrene suppresent. Not to thin out resin...but styrene suppresent is supposed to cut the smell of resin by 90%. I dont really have a properly ventilated area to work in so i'd like to cut the smell down as much as possible.

I still didn't see it in there. There are the ones in there used for thinning but i didn't read anything about cutting the smell of resin. I attended Mobile Dynamics and i used it there and i'm not sure where to get it now. I bought a charcoal mask...i'm not worried about me and the fumes...the last time i worked with resin...the smell filled the house and my family woke up with headaches and burning eyes and it wasn't pretty. I'd just like to cut the smell of the styrene down.

Ah, that makes more sense.

It sounds like you might want to try a different resin all together. From what I understand, epoxy resins don't have as strong an odor. Although another option is to get the resin shown in the link below. It has a bubble gum smell.

Why not call Mobile Dynamics and ask them what they use and where to get it?

just because the smell isn't there doesn't mean the fumes aren't going to cause the same problem, you need more ventilation (a box fan in a window may be enough)
