Portable spray booths

[PaulinKendal]

OMick,
I showed mine on 'Latest Aquisitions' At the moment it is in the shed waiting for the weather to improve so that I can construct a better spray box for it.... Money not well spent.

So that's the Sparmax SB88 off the list (yes, I'm looking at spray booths too).

Seeing that cheap unit that disappointed Scratchbuilder, I'm tempted to get a good 'un, and hang the expense. A Benchvent BV300 is the thick end of £400, but looks the business. Perhaps with a charcoal filter canister on the hose.

Good idea. How long does the filter last?

I might get one myself, looked at the link and I assume 4 inch is the connection diameter?

I have the large bartsharp booth, very good, excellent fans and leds. Alison at bartsharp is very helpful.

I didn't work that out, I'm assuming there's an industry standard for hours of use, but I'll go with "until failure".

Just do with whatever diameter your vent hose is. 4" fit mine.

Depends on the contamination load and the air throughput rate, but I’d just go with “Until I can smell the extract” as a rule of thumb.

Would it also filter the paint particles as well as the smell or am I being a tad thick lol

I still use the first filter though, cheaper to replace.

Yes it is Bob.
I've one like Tim showed, goes straight through the shed wall . Just remember to change the filters depending how much you spray .

Great to see you back John, just ordered a filter. Despite the new room being insulated it's still a bit nippy, so leaving the window shut will be great for my old bones!!
