Dust mask and eye protection in one- review coming

[wills-mill]

I set the Mizer up completely the wrong way round this morning and had a miserable day getting completely filled in with Wellingtonia dust, it's about time I was a bit more grown up about dust and stopped holding my breath and jamming my eyes closed.

 

I've tried a few different cheap masks and tried goggles and glasses over the years but they are always a bit of a mess and something always leaks or mists up, so I've never stuck with them.

I bought one of the Trend air helmets, but the battery life isn't up to a day's work and I found it heavy and really, really cold.

 

I had a bit of a poke around the 'net this evening and found these little beauties-

JSP FilterSpec Pro™ Black with FMP3 Valve Filter

 

 

They seem to tick a lot of the boxes- not too dear, very light and disposable filters, so hopefully they do the job and are a bit robust as well.

 

I shall report back when they've seen a bit of action.

I've always found any goggles that fit that tight mist up

i know it says anti mist but i never had a pair anti mist or not that don't steam up

even safety specs mist on a cold day and they have ventilation

all said and done if your testing them out the proof is in the testing

keep us updated

Riot helmets.

 

A mate of mine used to work for the prison service gave me his old riot helmet with a simple dust mask. You can pick them up from army surplus places like Anchor Sales etc

 

It may be a bit overkill sometimes but what price do you put on your health.

Hi guys I had one of those filter spec things and that just steamed up ,the beat thing I have found is cheep swimming goggles in clear plastic they have foam that stops the dust and are small enough that you can wear a good dust mask without them getting in the way they are meant to get wet so they can be washed when they do get covered in dust and they only cost a few quid ,give them a go see what you think
