3m Respirator for spraying house paint

Organic vapors. I am assuming you are looking at a half mask respirator so just get the P100 filters they are used for gases and organic vapors.

P100 is a particulate filter. Some can protect against nuisance odors. For complete protection a combination particulate/OV filter is proper. This is a common filter. For example, 3m a p100 with organic vapor will be black and pink. Black being their color for OV and pink is p100.

3M 60923/P100 combo should be good. LINK Ask the guys at Sherwin Williams to be sure, they will look up the SDS and tell you for sure.

I work at 3M. We use 6003/07047 cartridges

store the cartridges in a zip-top bag when not using them. They have a lifespan once taken out of the package.

Or you could go all crazy and get one of these: LINK

Is that the Guin plant? Don't they mostly make reflective films?

This will cover everything for less than $25. It's an auto paint respirator.

I've used this filter when spraying oil base on doors and furniture finishing. I've also used it to spray a pickup truck, my motorcycle and a few body parts for other people and found it more than sufficient.

What I generally do is put on the mask and then take an old t-shirt and use the neck hole over the mask so I can see and the rest of the t-shirt covers my head and neck to help keep any overspray off the hair and skin.
