Review: Excellent masks - These masks are excellent. We're renovating a very old barn with dirt floors and decades of dust and grime. The other week, we spent a maskless hour cleaning out one section of this barn and had to stop because my husband and I both had asthma attacks and were struggling to breathe until the next day. I immediately ordered these masks. Yesterday, we went back out to work and wow do these masks make a HUGE difference. No asthma attacks or dust/manure in our noses or lungs. We worked for a few hours without any issues. They're also much cooler than most masks I've worn. I didn't feel like my face was sweating off. Due to the elastic bands, they also fit well - neither too tight nor too loose on my husband's larger head or my smaller one. Overall, I'm incredibly glad I bought these and won't be doing any renovation work without them ever again.
Review: Wonderful! - These masks are wonderful. We are cleaning up after a trailer house burnt to the ground. We don't smell any of the toxic fumes, get any dust, and they are comfortable. Thank you for having these masks available.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does It good for filter pm 2.5?**
A: Technical Data below is from 3M Corporate:

Short Answer: 
3M N100 Mask filters out 99.97% of particles larger than 0.3-Microns (PM2.5 means 2.5-microns or larger). A 3M N100 Mask works well against cigarette smoke and smog covered cities. 

Longer Answer: 
Your concern is with PM2.5. See explanation below:


The most harmful pollutant to human health is called PM 2.5, particle matter smaller than 2.5 microns in diameter that's found in soot, smoke, and dust. PM 2.5 is especially dangerous because it can get lodged in the lungs and cause long-term health problems like asthma and chronic lung disease.

PM 2.5 starts to become a major health problem when there is more than 35.5 micrograms (µg) of PM 2.5 per cubic meter of air, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. But the World Health Organizations recommends keeping yearly average PM 2.5 levels three times lower than that.

The most polluted cities on Earth have anywhere between 11 and 20 times that amount - based on the new WHO data from cities that collect it. 

Hope this helps... 😁

**Q: Is this mask effective against smoke from wildfires (in surrounding cities, not fighting the fire)? How about use while spray painting? Thanks!!**
A: I noticed that when I smell smoke from a wildfire and then put on an N95 I can't smell smoke. So it has some effect. I carry them in my car and when I travel. But - it doesn't work with spray painting. That requires another type of filter. If I spray paint outside I use an N95 and that works if there's a gentle breeze to carry fumes away.

**Q: Why is this unit 70% more in cost than the 3M Particulate Respirator 8210V, N95  Looks to be the same thing.**
A: You're absolutely right.  You can visit the 3M site where it shows you all model numbers for their protective masks. Model 8511 specifically says on their website that this mask DOES NOT PREVENT VIRUS, GERM PROTECTION.   This is a description on one of 3M's sites w/ description of what 8511 which is given category on N95 (this is also not FDA approved).  product Code	8511  From 3M website:  This respirator can also help reduce inhalation exposures to certain airborne biological particles (examples: mold, Bacillus anthracis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis), but cannot eliminate the risk of contracting infection, illness, or disease
Product Color	White
Product Type	Dust and other Particles
Recommended Industry	Agricultural, Commercial Buildings, Construction, Design & Construction, Food Processing, Food Safety, General Manufacturing, Heavy Infrastructure, Industrial Maintenance, Mining, Oil & Gas, Transportation

**Q: Is this mask reusable？**
A: Although mentioned in other responses that it does not filter out certain viruses and bacteria, it is a good mask.  Also health authorities do not want you to use this mask as it does not filter out your own exhalations.  That being said it was the only mask I had during the early months of the pandemic.  And yes, I have used each mask over several times.  First after each use let the mask dry out for 24hrs.  Second after drying spray the inside and the outside of the mask with 70% alcohol.   Let it dry for 24hrs.   Then it should be ready to use again.  If the mask is dirty or damaged throw it out.  It was better than nothing.  During the pandemic I social distanced and stayed home only to go our for pharmacy and groceries and washed my hands and clothes.  I also would wipe down anything I brought into the home with either an 70% alcohol wipe or Clorox wipe.
