If you are going to do spryaing on a regular basis, consider one with=3D20
replaceable cartridges. The one you link to is a disposable mask. Shoul=

d do=3D20
the job, but not made for the long haul.

Just wondering if someone can tell me if this is an appropriate
respirator for glaze spraying:

Our local hardware has some, but they're heavier duty than this and
about $45...
Thanks!

Hi Kathi,

P99 or P100 masks are what is recommended for silica dust. This one is =3D
only P95. Look for a P99 or P100--they don't cost more than a dollar or =3D
two more. For more info see Monona Rossol's article on the subject in =3D
