I finally got to test my new spray booth today, and I am quite happy with the result. It was made using some leftover ply that i had in the garage and a 3m tumble dryer duct hose. The fan is a bathroom extractor unit which is the primary cost of the project. i also used some silicone sealant to fill the joints and the cable/plug from an old vacuum cleaner. Total cost about £24, so not bad really.
I was using a respirator today as well, costing £15 and vented the duct out of the kitchen window.
Most of the spray was exhausted very well and i could watch it clear from the models, but I applied aerosol
cautiously as the spray primer is flammable. All the other paints that I will use will be water based acrylic.
Results were good and some more little minis ready to rock!![]()
