I like to use a mask when I go into the loft or when woodworking or sanding, the dust makes me cough.

I already have a rubber respirator that takes cartridges for solvents or paint spraying, that isn't what I need. It's too heavy, and hard to breathe through, and i don't want to carry it around all the time.

There seem to be a lot of types of mask around now, I just want something for wood and glass fibre dust, or underfloor dust, but with one of those valves on the snout to let your breath out, and that I can bend to shape to seal round the bridge of the nose. Something disposable in packs with multiple masks in.

What type of mask should I be looking for?
 
Although I hate wearing them, Toolstations 10 pack masks work well....93297 is the part number, 80p each I think. John :)
