Sanding - dust extraction

[Austin_Metro]

I’m intending to sand some paint from the stairs, prior to repainting. Likely using a black and decker mouse or similar.

I’d like to keep control of the dust. Can anyone recommend a cost effective solution to attach to the back of the tool please?

Don’t really want to use the house’s hoover, even if that would be satisfactory.

Cheers

Thanks all. Bought the dust mask as recommended. Still thinking about Henry, Bosch or karacher.

If you get a Henry, you might want to get the aftermarket HEPA filter, like:

Numatic brand the bags + filter HepaFlow but they are not HEPA compliant and with sanding dust you want to catch all the small dust you can. The better filter makes a big difference.

If you want to spend more, I've also got an excellent Nilfisk with includes a class M filter and has power take off, which does make it much easier as the vac will turn on and off with the sander and you essentially get a 4m extension lead for the sander too

This looks like the new version, mine is 4/5 years old:

This has got me looking at m class filtration and auto on off. Gone from £ 50 to festool… not even man maths makes that work …
