    Dawn, Find a contact your locak 3M representative (of find them on
    the web). You can purchase a mask type that takes different types of
    cannisters, but you likely will need different cannisters for the
    different uses you have.  For simple dusts, you can use the paper
    filter types similar to what is used in medical use, although it's
    not qutie the same.  3M again, makes a fine one, an N95 type that
    also has an air valve on the front to make breathing easier, and it
    keeps it from fogging up.  If you keep it in a ziplock bag when not in
    use, these inexpensive masks last a long time.  But they are only for
    nuisance dusts, not fumes from soldering.  For that, you'll need
    something more thorough.  Again, discuss your exact materials and
    needs with the 3M folks.  They make a very extensive selection, and
    can tailor something to exactly what you need.  And, on a good note,
    at least based on what the 3M people said at the SNAG conference,
    prices are lower now than they used to be, which is a good thing
    indeed. 

HTH.
