Will this respirator work for both sanding & spray painting wood furniture?

I have used it for both. If you will be doing a lot of painting I would suggest buying extra filters, as the fine aerosol mist of the spray paint will clog the filters over time.

Yes. The particulate filters are easy to replace and it does include an organic vapor cartridge. You want to work in a ventilated room, of course, but I wouldn't hesitate to use this for spray painting.

I believe it will work fine for those applications. I have a beard, and so it doesn't seal as well against my face, but other than that, I love this mask.

From my experience it has both the particulate filter that will take care of the sanding dust and the organic type filter worked well for me while I was painting snowmobile hoods. Friend of mine runs an automotive restoration business and said this is the exact same model they use in his business.

Well, I use it for sanding and carving gourds and those particles are 10x smaller than saw dust and it keeps me breathing clear. My guess would be yes. Bottom line is if you can still smell or taste what hazardous material you are working with then the mask is mot working.

It does qualify as a respirator under OSHA standards only based on the type of cartridges you use. As for medical I can't help you. You might see if there are any cartridges for medical use. Hope this helps. Phil

If you check the CDC's web site it will give you the % filtration for the rating P95= 95% of airborne particles, P100= 99.97%... These are the ones I use when restoring old furniture and homes that have the potential of being painted with paint containing lead, as well as sheet rock dust. Remember the performance will only be as good as the mask is properly fitted...

I purchased this item primarily for spray painting. Seems to at least keep the smell of the paint oder out so I think it works. For keeping the dust out I would say mosst likely....

Hi Christine,I used this product inside the metal ducts in my ventilation system, so not sure if it works on wood. My best guess is since wood is more porous than metal, it should do the job just fine. Hope this helps.

I would wear a breathing mask (not surgical type) and use a small dust spreader (similar to Pest Pistol). This should also be used on furniture. You will have to 'rub it in' so it doesn't look white if you over-spray.

I have only used it for painting prep purposes, drywall and a wooden desk. I'm not sure about wet sanding, I'm sorry :(

Sure but is way over kill... Sawdust particles are large .. A paper N95 mask should be plenty for wood sanding...

Perfect for fence. I have done furniture. Over spray is more than i prefer. I ordered the smaller needle to do top coats. In a pinch.I feel this sprayer is good. The main thing I don't like abt abt it. Is that you can't dial down the air pressure.

These filters are great and safe for even the smallest of wood and dust particles and are lightweight so are practical for long hours of wearing in the shop. What they cannot filter are solvents and paints. Tried with spray paint the odours and fumes can be smelled. The carbon based typical dual layer cartridges are safe for most solvents, fumes and paints. There are charts online to at 3M to learn more specifics.http://multimedia.3m.com/mws/mediawebserver?mwsId=SSSSSuH8gc7nZxtU5x_9oxmZevUqe17zHvTSevTSeSSSSSS--&fn;=ReusableRespBrochure.pdf

I used this on a chair and it works very well. I would suggest that you move the furniture away from the walls because the tool may spray over the furniture and onto the wall.

I do. Just about any P100 would be good for sanding. I use this one for any woodworking I do. I've also used it when mowing on high pollen days. It works fine for me.

These should work. I use them in my wood shop and they work great for saw dust.This 3M system ( the P100 filters mounted to the mask ) work FAR better than the paperand rubber band things you see at the local hardware dealers. Amazon was the best price too.

The mask can be used for gas filtration however what is also important isthetype of cartridge. If you are goin to use gas please use the 3m cartridge multi gas part no. 60926. It is recommended for most types of gases. Also please refer to 3m website for further information. Hope this is helpful. My husband uses it for staining wooden furniture and the smell does not affect him.

Having sold the vacuums previously, I can say that the hard floor cleaner does work on wood flooring, but I don't have hardwood floors to have tested it. I don't know if I have the sander attachment, though; I never used that part so I'm not sure.

I use these for cleaning up dust, wood is a finer particulate. Might need a 3M 7500 half face piece respirator with a HEPA filter for sanding wood especially if you're sanding for long periods of time.
