Dust mask - what type

Do you use a dust mask when spraying, sanding, sawing etc?
I need to all the time now.
What mask do you use?
Thanks

Dust masks will do Jack for chemicals. You want a decent respirator, especially you've been told you need to use one for health reasons.
Personally I use a 3M 6002c half face mask. Keep it in a sealed container when not in use

I got this one:

Here's why:

There are lots of classification for face masks, I thought paint filtering was enough for me...

I do use a respirator mask. Elipse Spr501. Filters replacement cost 75% of the total price of complete mask!
I'll look at them both when I come to replace
