I am wondering if anyone out there has the Model Expo portable spray booth? If you own one, what has your experience been with it?
Thanks,
Brian
I have one as my home built one died and this was cheaper than a new fan. Works great but buy the hose kit also as it does not come with a way to vent the fumes outside.I have had it about 6-8 months and love it. I leave it set up as it dosen't take much room but its very easy to set up/take down. I got it when it was on sale for $99 +/-

That's good to hear, John. I just bought one and it came with the hose. I am just airbrushing with acrylics. Not spraying enamels or lacquers.
Do you spray Tamiya paints? I was wondering if it was safe to do so as I think they are flammable (at least that's what it says on the bottle.
I have used it with most every kinda paint,Model Master,Tamyia,Valejio air and regular,Badger and Life color. worked great with all. I thought it might be too small when I saw it on the web-site but It has worked well for everything so far,I build mostly 1/35th armor and 1/48th and 1/72 planes.I have a few 1/350th ships to do and I don't think they will fit.
I have one and it works great with Valljo and Tamiya paints.
Go to Amazon, you can find the same booth with hose kits for just $79. That's what I did, it's the very same booth.
Yes, I just bought the same one. That's good to hear that it works with Tamiya and Vallejo since that is what I primarily use.
What kind of setup do you have - basement, apartment, room in the house? Do you have it exhaust to outside. For me the fumes are sometimes a little strong for Tamiya (not enamels or lacquer though) so I wonder how it takes care of that.
I just use it in a room. So far it's good enough for the Valljo and Tamiya paints but if I start to use any other paints I'll run the hose though the window,
Right now its in my basement,but shortly I'm moving my shop to an upstairs room I use as my office now,that way I dont have to deal with water any more.

Who was the seller? Can you provide a link to the Amazon page? I cannot find it. Thank you in advance.
