If it's 1K you should be ok, 2K definately an Air fed mask - nothing less!!!
But I have never used Mipa, so a look at the data sheet will tell you.

read data sheet no mention of any isos , just reperator filter device in low conditions , i was thinking of getting a hobbyair 2 system with 160 ft hose do you think that would be better than the 3m masks also how often should i be renewing organic filters many thx for your help

glad you fnd it funny i didnt explain myself properly, as i mainly paint outside and i may go back to using 2k clear if i can sort out a decent airfed setup these hobbyair setups apparantly can run max 160 ft hose is this far enough not to suck in overspray or fumes many thx

just a reasonable distance away 10 meters upwind or clear of where your directly spraying if your using the air fed mask. decent face masks can be used with comon sence in an aeria thats not confined . but thats up to the individual ., safety yes but no need to go over the top

If you are spraying outside be aware that although you are sharing the overspray with neighbours if you have any. I spray little bits outside with cellulose in an aerosol and my next door neighbour always comments on it smelling like pear drops.
