Does anybody know what type of filters we are supposed to use for protection against metal fumes and enamels? Is P1, P2 or P3?
I was told a few days ago and I can't remember now ???

Thank you

P3!! Apparently B&Q make a really good mask with changeable filters for about £35.00. MUCH better than the disposables I bought.
