Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is this easy to clean off a painted cyc floor? Will the floor get noticeably slippery after spraying?

A: The manufacturer states that yes, if you are indoors on a non-carpeted floor, the Atmosphere Aerosol Haze Spray for Photographers & Filmmakers may make the floor slick, especially in concentrated areas. However, it should be able to be cleaned quite easily.

Q: 2. Is there any risk that this product will accumulate on camera or lens?

A: This is a oil based haze.

Q: 3. Does this set off smoke detectors? Ive used fog and haze machines in the past and innow it depends on the sensitivity of the detector, etc. but was just curious about others experiences.

A: Unfortunately, the answer simply depends on the type of smoke detector that is being used. If an ionisation-type or photo-electric/ particle detection smoke detector is used, it can be set off by fog as they sense the fog particles just like smoke. Heat based detectors should be okay. The issue is you may not know which one you have, or the sensitivity of the particle detection smoke detector. If you are using the item indoors, it would be recommended to give your local fire department a call for assistance. They may either be able to assist you with performing a test to see if the item will be an issue for your particular type smoke detector, and/or if they see that the detector will be set off by the item, they may be able to offer to disable the unit and station a fire marshal or fireman in the venue during usage. WE DO NOT RECOMMEND DISABING A SMOKE DETECTOR YOURSELF. This may be illegal, and contacting your local fire station is highly recommended. Otherwise, I would recommend using the item outdoors in an open area (though you may still wish to contact the fire department so neighbors and passers-by do not think there is a fire and still call the fire department at the sight of smoke/haze/fog). If you are shooting in a public venue, I would recommend simply inquiring with the venue as to their rules regarding using smoke/haze.
