Just for myself and my gf, I bought a box of N95 paper respirators back in the 2015 wildfire season, and just invested in some more heavy-duty hardware since this is coming a thing:
$25 - 3M Half facepiece reusable respirator
$15 - 2-pack 3M NIOSH-approved P100 particulate and organic gas filter
If your employer doesn't care about your health, you should!
I use these, which go with this, so you can have hot pink AND talk like Bane. And, like, avoid cancer or silicosis or some shit.
I went for this one, but haven't tried it yet (hasn't arrived)

Agreed on all points, but I'd recommend the 7501 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008MCUS28) over the 6000 series since it has a silicone piece that interfaces with your face instead of harder plastic.
Hello all,
What type of respirator should I use and which type of filter? I may have done something stupid since I had used a medium respirator two weeks ago (https://www.amazon.com/3M-Respirator-7501-Respiratory-Protection/dp/B008MCUS28/ref=sr_1_1?s=hi&ie=UTF8&qid=1503993009&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=respirator+mask&psc=1) and filter cartridges. However, the mask might have been a tiny bit too big for me as I smelled the fumes a bit a few times (about three times) when I moved my head around - I used Mr. hobby thinner and Mr. Surfacer. Other than that, it was secure.
I since have gotten a small size one, which fits my face better. However, what was stupid is that I have gotten light headed after an hour in. I may have continued for 10 minutes till it gotten worse and stopped. A major headache lasted till a day though a smaller headache and sharp pains lasted till maybe today (9 days in). Hopefully, whatever I damaged heals (I have my annual check up in mid-September), but I am scared.
The filters I used was organic vapor cartridges. I think next time I should use the particulate filters with plastic holders.
