Hi John, I do a good deal of keytop work and have found that the dust is rather heavy. It isn't like sawdust which will float around in the room and is very light. The buffing compound dust seems to make it stay put, even stick a little, so I'm not sure you need to invest in the .3 micron bag for that specific purpose. Good luck with whatever you purchase.

Price seems OK and IF it moves the amount of air that they claim, should be really good at clearing sawdust from the shop. btw. Have you tried using it to clear really fine stuff such as buffing compounds when polishing keytops or similar items? What was the result if you did?? Seems to me that their ( Grizzly's ) 0.3micron bag would be best for that. Yeah, I know that's extra $$.
