- This unit goes under many different names and brands, like most Chinese produced hobby booths. Kaizo, OPHIR, and RobotKai all sell the same unit at similar prices. Right now, it's sold out of preorders at RobotKai's website, but it's in stock at Amazon's OPHIR brand. You can buy one here, amzn.to/40gx768
Overall it's a great unit, it delivers on its core promise of being able to filter the scent and particles in the air from acrylic and lacquer paints. I recommend it; the only issue I had was when cleaning it, I accidentally pulled the coupler that connects the water curtain, and it made a bit of a mess. That was easily preventable now I know it's possible.
I want to make the jump to finally doing some Air brushing. Do these booths also got an exhaust to take the fumes out through a window, or is it all done by the waterfall? Thanks!!
Hey, they have the most powerful fans I've seen in consumer level spray booths. Something like 380cfm with triple fans.
The exhaust can be routed outside or into a 5 gal bucket full of water. I've done some voc testing with the 5 gal setup and found no noticeable levels of VOCs being leaked
Also, the easiest way to start is literally to just do it even if your spraying spoons, it gets much easier from there. I recently restarted myself, a good starting airbrush is the mr creos line
That’s really hold to know man! Thanks for the info. I’m in the process of building a new house office and it seems this is the one in getting for sure!
@@HobbyBench can you do a quick overview of the whole airbrush setup including the water bucket? Thanks!
Sure, I have a newborn so things are slow right now with content and I have a ton of content for my business I've had to shoot over the last 2 weeks. I will try to make some more content this weekend, including a better overview. Barbatos Rex has a good walk through on this system you can review in the meantime, although I have a bit more of a complex setup.
'Anthony', thanks for the update, and the "longer version" of all your shorts.
I was thinking of getting this paint booth, and not the other showing off on 'Barbatos'.....although the flow of air in the "newer" booth is Quite promising!!
Saw the link, but my question is ....... I build pretty good size models in 1/72 and 1/700 A/C & ships respectfully, does your booth hold this for me to spray while on that rotating platform??
Thanks for commenting........I wonder if other people are going to look at your posts ...... and 'Sub'. I hope you do what you say and try to do the test of VOCs.....THAT will convince me in the final purchase.
I'll put a star destroyer in there when I get a chance to show you the scale
I did do VOC testing with an expensive meter, and found 0 VOC's leaking with the carbon filter and the Innovation unit. I did not do it on video though and I returned the VOC meter. I am posting a longer video of the unit today I've worked on over the past few months
@@HobbyBench Good Day, 'Anthony'.... hoping you had a Great Thanksgiving!!!
Thanks for getting that VOC testing done, was a bit curious about that, since ( at the time ) was wondering how fumes/overspray, etc... was going to go.
But, when I was mentioning about THIS specific spray booth, wife was not too happy about the " water " part, though I tried to explain to her that there is a reservoir that can be emptied out once finished, but wasn't convinced. So, I did purchase a different type of booth...I think a good one, with dual fan, but I use that outside and have to set up Each Time I want to spray...
Wondering.....were you selling those airbrush holders that you place on the side of YOUR booth?? Is there a certain dimension(s) that is needed for set up on the side??
@Hey_MikeZeroEcho22P I can sell you one if you don't have a 3d printer, but I published the stls for free on printables.com
@Hey_MikeZeroEcho22P as for dimensions, it should fit most booths, when I get home next Monday I'll try to get you the dimensions or you can download the stl and measure it directly
