Achieving Class A Finishes: The Importance of Filtrair Ceiling Diffusion Media (CDM) in Paint Booths

In the world of industrial painting, every detail matters—especially when it comes to achieving a flawless, Class A finish. Whether you’re painting cars, heavy equipment, or aerospace components, the final result is only as good as the environment in which it was created. One critical but often overlooked factor in that environment is the ceiling diffusion media (CDM) used in your paint booth.

At FG-Finishing, we understand the stakes. That’s why we’re proud to be the exclusive U.S. distributor of Filtrair Ceiling Diffusion Media, a premium filtration solution trusted by top manufacturers worldwide. If you’re serious about finish quality, Filtrair CDM is a game-changer.

Why Ceiling Diffusion Media Matters
Paint booths are designed to provide a controlled environment where airflow, pressure, and particulate levels can be precisely managed. The ceiling diffusion media plays a vital role in that control by:

Filtering incoming air to remove contaminants before they can reach the spray zone

Evenly distributing airflow across the booth for consistent application

Protecting painted surfaces from dust, fibers, and imperfections that cause rework or rejection

Poor-quality or worn-out CDM can lead to turbulent airflow, airborne particles, and inconsistent finishes—all of which cost time, materials, and money.

What Sets Filtrair Apart
Filtrair’s high-performance CDM is engineered specifically for high-end spray booth applications. Its multilayer construction combines synthetic fibers of varying densities, thermally bonded for maximum efficiency and stability. Key benefits include:

High Dust Holding Capacity – Traps fine particles without restricting airflow, extending filter life and reducing maintenance

Excellent Air Distribution – Ensures uniform laminar flow for smooth, even coatings

Consistent Filtration Performance – Maintains low particle counts and cleanroom-quality air in the booth

Class A Finish Support – Minimizes surface defects such as fisheyes, dust nibs, or orange peel

When paired with properly maintained booth systems and processes, Filtrair CDM is a critical component in consistently producing Class A finishes.
