will this work for fiberglass resin? says it works for organic vapors of low toxicity ebay link
It says that the respirator itself can be used in organic vapor environment but the cartridges that come with it aren't. They're dual dust cartridges. While they can be replaced with ones for chemical vapors, unless you know where you can get those organic vapor cartridges for this respirator, I'd think twice about it. The price is not too bad, though.

When buying a respirator, supply of standardized replacement cartridges is a necessity. I wouldn't want to have to order replacements and wait for them to get there.

Just pick one up at your local hardware store, you'll thank yourself when you need new cartridges later.
 
Go to menards, hardware section, they have high quality respirators for 20-30 dollars depending on model and purpose. Mine is for organic vapors, and it only cost 21 dollars, plus cartridges were only like 15 dollars for a pair.

Dont go looking for cheap quality cheap priced mask, know where to find good mask for a good price.

Spending the extra 5-6 dollars is better than spending 5000 dollars at the hospital for your lung problems.
