is it safe to sand resin model kits using this booth to filter resin dust?

Myself, I'd use a separate area to do all my sanding then use a good vacuum to clean the area up. I wouldn't want to get fine dust particles in my painting area. If you didn't get it all up then when you start spraying, the pressure from your gun may kick up dust you missed and get it all over your new paint job. A paint booth is just that. A place to spray paint and not to do any sanding.

None, you purchase them separately, particulate for dust, organic vapor for paint, I bought both types as I wanted to be setup to sandblast and paint.

I am of the opinion that you will simply be able to hold less dust in the container. You MIGHT try using a less powerful vacuum. (Which would slow down the cyclonic action, allowing the dust to drop further, slower, into the bucket. However, that might also reduce your dust collecting capability at the etcher. Considered rigging two Dust Deputies in series?

Yes, but don't buy the sand at home depot or lowes. The sand is a specific grade, so read the instructions! This thing is heads and tails above the paper filter unit. It has required virtually zero maintenance all summer. I'm picky!

The answer is "no." The filters I use have threads have threads on both sides. Most of them do so this shouldn't be a problem.

Yes.If you research the manufacture there is some great info.Also if there is a lot of sand in the water it could affect the filters,you could look at installing sand filter

These should work. I use them in my wood shop and they work great for saw dust.This 3M system ( the P100 filters mounted to the mask ) work FAR better than the paperand rubber band things you see at the local hardware dealers. Amazon was the best price too.

Depends on how dusty the conditions are.It's best to clean them after each use.Order washable filters from Amazon and be done with it.

No! It is just a dust collector. You will need some flex hose and hose clamps to connect it to your tools. You should be able to connect to your sander without any reducers.

Yes, that should work fine. Verify the filter states it's acceptable for dusty applications. Also while using the mask if it starts getting harder to breath change the filters. Have fun!

as long as the thread size is correct there is no problem, filters are interchangeable. :)

I have used it to pick up small particles using the optional micro filter bag. I do not have sand to worry about but would imagine it would not be an issue unless the sand particles are super fine.

It doesn't have the port built in, and unless you want a real mess you probably should get it. But even with the port hooked up to a more than adequate vacuum, the planer spits chips out the front. So I figured I was capturing about 67% of the chips and dust with the "optional" dust port.

As others have pointed out a regular vacuum is not meant to handle the fine dust from drywall sanding. Use a shop vacuum with a drywall dust rated filter. A five gallon bucket with a lid can be made into a type of pre-filter. It uses water in the bucket to trap the dust before it gets to the vacuum. Look on line for instructions to make one.

Yes, just be sure to get the right filter. 3M makes lots of them, and you can get the right tables from them. I use the cartridge P100 for metal dusts.

I've uses enamel, acrylic and laquer with this booth. That being said, still make sure to wear a mask when using laquers as they are thinner and far more toxic than enamel and acrylic paint and you will still have a bit in the air while the fan sucks the fumes out. Also, unless you are keeping already painted parts in the booth, you will get fumes off of them while they dry as well.
