How often should I replace the cartridges? Should I just do it every couple spray jobs like I've been doing, or is that not necessary?
And also, whats the best way to store them? Just ziplock them?
Thanks!

I always changed them when I couldn't breathe through them anymore.

See if the manufacturer has recommendations. Once the cartridge is unpacked, some of these cartridges absorb chemicals from the air and get "used up" even if the respirator is not operated. It's not worth getting cheap with these.
