I didn’t want to hyjack the other thread, so thought i would start a new one. I have finally decided to buy a spray booth. But one of the things that has always put me off is the size of the work area. The one i am looking at seems big enough for most of my kits, 72nd aircraft and 35th armour. But i know there are a few that are just to big.
So the question is, does the model have to be inside the work area. Or is it sufficent to have the model as close as possable and make sure you are spraying towards the extractor.
The booth will be in an outside shed with plenty of ventilation and i will of course be wearing a respirator. So would this be sufficent.
I have one which folds down for easy use as my work area isn’t the biggest. I’ve found that as long as your close it does get drawn into the booth and taken away so you should be ok. if your using a respirator as well I’m sure you’ll be fine
Thanks Phil. I was looking at a fold down one as it happens. Its not going to be on my hobbey bench but on a work bench in the shed, so think a fold away will be very handy.
I thoguht this might be ok if it wasn’t in the both, but wanted to check. And a spray booth is long over due.
Mine is the Expo 500 with the extra hose on the back to take the fumes out of a window. I think the booth is about £75 but I got one from a show right at the end of the day and I don’t think the seller had done much all day so got both for £60. Its about 18" across and so far its worked just as you’d expect
Funnily enough thats the one i was looking at. I like thats its a modular one so can get two is i need it bigger. And its a decent price compared to some of the others. Nice to hear a good word about it. Thanks Phil.
