Hiton Paint Booth Tacky Intake Filter Pad 20x20 (24 Pack) - Durable

In this review the Hiton Paint Booth Tacky Intake Filter Pad 20x20 (24 Pack) is judged primarily as a value-minded intake panel for cross draft spray booths. It is best for body shops and small production facilities that need a reliable first-stage filter that traps overspray and dust without complex installation. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a dry tackifier and a sealed internal wire frame that reduces bypass and flutter, keeping the booth cleaner between jobs.

Key Features

• Economical cross draft filtration: Designed to provide effective first-stage intake protection while keeping replacement costs low for busy shops.
• Dry tackifier media: A tacky surface holds dirt and overspray in place so particles do not re-enter the airflow during operation.
• Self-sealing gasket: The gasket helps prevent bypass around the panel, ensuring air is drawn through the filter media rather than around it.
• Internal wire support: Heat sealed to an 11 gauge internal support frame to resist flutter and maintain shape under airflow.
• Two-layer polyester construction: Two layers of 100% polyester media balance capture efficiency and airflow for cross draft booth designs.
• Pack quantity: Sold as a 24 pack so workshops can change filters on a regular maintenance schedule without frequent reordering.

Who It's For

The Hiton Series 55 panels suit small to medium body shops, collision repair centers, and automotive painters who run cross draft spray booths and need an affordable, dependable intake filter. It is aimed at users who want a simple, drop-in panel with a tacky surface to trap debris and overspray before it reaches booth internals.

Shops seeking HEPA-level final filtration or a multi-stage filtration system should look elsewhere, since these panels are intended as economical intake panels and are best used as the first stage in a multi-stage setup rather than as the sole filtration for high-cleanliness requirements.
