Respirators when working with pigments
Can someone verify what type of respirator I should be wearing when working with oxide pigments? I’ve been using NIOSH N95 disposable masks and they don’t seem to be completely effective. I’ve researched the subject multiple times and the answer always seems to be the N95. I’d appreciate any expertise on this. Thanks!

IMO gloveboxes are more effective, and cheaper in the long run as you avoid replacing expensive respirator cartridge filters.
You can easily build one yourself
