Just wondering if any of you wear respirators or some inexpensive gas masks while welding? If so, what do you use? Would I be okay using an aerosol paper mask?

Anything out there that won't burn a hole in my wallet? Thanks.

They sell them at local welding supply stores as well. You would be suprised at how much stuff they actually filter out.

 

I have the adflo. It filters a suprising amount . It is quite heavy and you get a tired neck at first and it is very cold in the winter
