I've had one of those for a few years now great bit of kit and it means I can spray in the hobby room and not the garage, a bonus in the winter months ....

I have one and I do like it. It is not designed to handle all paints though, someone sprayed lacquer on it and apparently the plastic melted a bit. With that said, I have sprayed anything and everything and don't have a problem with mine.

The vent hose goes out the window just fine and I use an old towel rolled up to fill the gap along the widow to the side of the discharge nozzle.

For most air brush work, the vent fan sucks out the mist handily, however, with a bigger spray gun or a rattle can, you can at times generate more mist than it can evacuate so you have to let it catch up a little.

For the cost, it is a very good value in my opinion and I certainly am glad I have one.

I use this one and so far no complaints. It enables me to paint during the winter.

I've sprayed pretty much everything with mine as well, lacquer paints, tamiya acrylics, enamels and artists acrylics, but one thing I did before even using mine was to get a roll of kitchen grease proof paper and lined the complete booth, and placed a few sheets of paper on the base, all held in place with 3M's blue decorators tape, the paper is easily changed when I do my maintenance on it, i.e clean or replace the filter ....

This photo was taken today after doing the needed maintenance before starting the next build, I've had it for around 3 or 4 years and it still looks like the day I bought it.

Wow, great idea baking/kitchen paper.

[Chris D]

where are you guys getting replacement filters?

I get mine from Hollywood Trade, they should ship to the U.S, as they weigh hardly anything so shipping shouldn't be a problem ...
