Replacing spray booth filters
Posted by M1 A1 A2 Tanker on Sunday, February 14, 2010 6:20 PM

Hey

      Everyone

               Ok, the wife is on board with me getting the Paasche 22" spray booth. It will come with 1 fiber and 1 carbon filter, so my questions are: how often do I need to change the filter? And should I get some more now or can I wait to buy the filters later?

 

Thanks

Scott

 

P.S. I may airbrush a model once a month if I'm lucky.

If you are exhausting to the outside you shouldn't need the carbon filter.

The fiber filter should last for at least 3 or 4 models or more I would think, but of course that all depends on how much paint you blast into the booth. The filters tend to clog around the opening to the fan mostly and the rest of the filter stays clean. At least that is how it is on my Badger spray booth.

You may be able to find furnace filters at Walmart that could fit it depending on it's size.
