Hi,
Has anyone used this spray booth, my local HS is saying that it's quite good. Anyone had any experience with it?
Thanks
Pete

Pete, I have a newly acquired Paassche spraybooth, and using it, make me wonder why I never purchased one years ago.
All of todays spraybooths are manufactured to meet strict health standards, and I would strongely recommend one to anybody using an airbrush, or spray cans, reguardless of manufacture.

Do many people use spray booths and are they worth the £s'?

Are there modellers out there who don't use one?

I only use acrylic paint and Klear, do I need protection?

Hi Murdo,
I would recommend everyone get a booth, even if your spraying acrylics , the paint atomizes and then gets into your lungs. ( that may be a little simplistic, but essentually correct) A booth allows you to control the finish by reducing dust and overspray.
I've used one of my own designs for about 2 yearsand I wouldn't model without it now and it's time for a re-design.
Cheers
Pete
