Artograph 1530 HOBBY MODEL SPRAY SYSTEM®
Product Description:
Are you a hobbyist who delights in airbrushing? Do you prefer to use spray lacquer to put a final sealing coat on your modeling projects? Anyone who works with spray projects knows it can be very messy and, at times, toxic. This is where the Artograph 1530 Hobby Model Spray System can help!
Big Power, Convenient Size
Artograph spray booths are made in the U.S.A. and designed to give you the cleanest experience for all of your spray projects. The 1530 Hobby Model is particularly suited for those who spray a lot. This model features 370 CFM of airflow from two exhaust ports. The spark-proof motors and fan are housed within a thermo-resistant housing, making it safe to run the unit 24/7.
This spray booth boasts a 15 x 30 inch work area, with a soft incline to make spraying easier. The metal hood sports a perforated edge to hang small parts so they will receive the most accurate coating there is also a clear window on the hood to let in light for even more accuracy.
Safe, Three-Stage Filtration
Three stages of filtration help to trap even the most stubborn of particles, leaving the air fresh and keeping your work area clean. Each filter is made with polyester, which is much less toxic than spray booths that use fiberglass. Filters are fully replaceable and easy to install. Each unit also comes with a free 5 year warranty!
The first stage pre-filter is 100% polyester designed to keep the work area clean. (The spray system comes with 5 of these pre-cut filters, and replacements can be ordered already cut, or in a roll.) The second stage is made of non-woven polyester coated with tacky PVC on one side to trap more particulates. (1 of these is already included with the unit.) The third stage consists of a poly-carbon blend to trap the final particles that try to escape. Even more control of odorous air is available by simply attaching a standard dryer hose to the exhaust port.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often do I have to change the filters and the hood?
We recommend changing the pre-filter about every 90 sprays when using pre-cut filters, or whenever the roll is depleted when using a pre-filter roll. Stage 2 filter paks should be changed every 3-4 months, or when you’ve used about 2 rolls of pre-filters. The Stage 3 poly-carb filter should be changed about every 6 months to a year, or every 2 filter paks. The hood can be replaced whenever it becomes damaged, or if you simply desire a new one. Replacement hoods can be ordered here at the Madison Art Shop online, or by consulting the replacement hood and filter ordering instructions that are included with the unit.
What kind of fans are used in this spray booth?
The Artograph 1530 spray booth uses a thermally protected brushless box AC fan.
Can I filter the over spray and odors out of doors?
Yes. A standard dryer hose can be attached to the built-in exhaust adapters on the unit to direct the air output anywhere you would like. We recommend using a maximum length of 8 feet of dryer hose.

Customer Reviews
Easy setup, but I'm adding a subject support to keep things off the filters.
Very pleased with price, quality, and service, and I have already placed another order for a Silentaire compressor. Mike D Dayton Ohio 09/21/2011 4 Great spray booth for my intended purpose -- painting model aircraft. The expanded size easily accommodates large airplane ship models. Set-up was easy. Venting fumes outside was quickly accomplished by purchasing a standard dryer hose clamps and then attaching it to the booth and a makeshift basement window insert. To make the booth "fully" operational, I'd recommend adding a small "peg board" base to provide a sturdier surface to work on and clip-on lighting. Mike Clover Belleville, IL 07/05/2011
Do you work with paints, adhesives or anything that gives off fumes? This is the solution to protect your health.
Place the Artograph 1530 Hobby Model Spray System on your work table and do your spraying or inside the spray booth’s 15-in. x 30-in. work-space. The system sucks in all the vapors and fumes without disturbing your work. You will not smell a thing!
Alternatively, you can even do your hobbying or any work near the spray booth and it will also pull in any fumes or toxins.
The Artograph Spray Booth is can be used near a window to vent out all fumes out the window. (Built-in exhaust adapter for venting outdoors).
It can also be used in the middle of any room without outdoor venting. The systems triple-filters will handle it. However, by venting outdoors, the replaceable filters will last longer. Filters should last 3 months with regular use. You will know when they need replacing when you start to smell the fumes from your work. Spray booth comes with easy-ordering instructions for replacement filters.
