mcdonnell Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Hello,Friends - Shesto are advertising this product and interests me.However,I would like any feedback from anyone who has this product as to their experience and thoughts of it?

Edge Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Hi Paul I don't have this one, but use a similar portable booth from Expo. Mine didn't come with the extraction hose, so I can't give you a direct comparison, but I find that mine's ok with acrylic but when I spray anything like Mr Color self levelling thinner or Alclad I smell out the house. It moves a similar volume of air so is a fairly good competitor for the Shesto one. I should try the accessory hose out if the window to see if it makes a difference, but have never gotten round to it! Edge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edge Many thanks for your feedback,Edge.My No.1 concern is if it's safe to spray enamels without it creating a fire risk with the unit itself.The extraction hose would be out of the window. All the very best,Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little-cars Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 Paul, I stock a lot of shesto products and questioned them about this when it came out, as the holy grail of spraying is a cheap and safe booth for flammables.. The reply I had back was "It is not intended for use with hazardous materials, flammable or explosive paints or materials." I have suggested that they make this clear on the product description. The least expensive domestic one suitable for flammables is still the Graphicair A300S-D. I worked out that mine is coming up for it's 20th anniversary soon. http://www.modellingtools.co.uk/graphicair-a300s-d-11995-p.asp Paul 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
