Product details
Per Koch Bulletin PB-798-3, the Koch KDF 600 Diffusion Media Bulk Master Roll is a bonded synthetic diffusion media designed for use in downdraft type spray booths where superior fractional efficiency and controlled laminar airflow is required for blemish-free finishes. Per Koch PB-798-3, KDF 600 utilizes a progressively dense fiber matrix enhanced with a specially formulated adhesive coating to provide exceptional performance in surface finishing operations. Per Koch PB-798-3, this formula prevents particle migration and creates unparalleled holding capacity, superior to other diffusion medias.
Per Koch PB-798-3, KDF 600 will improve FIRST PASS CAPABILITY and REDUCE REJECTS, which improves overall operational efficiency, saving time and money. Initial efficiency ratings of 99.9% at 5 microns and 100% at 10 microns make the KDF 600 ideally suited to provide world-class filtration for surface finishing operations.

About diffusion media in downdraft spray booths
Diffusion media is installed at the ceiling of a downdraft spray booth — the air-intake side, opposite the exhaust filter bank. Conditioned booth air enters through this layer of diffusion media before passing over the painted surface. KDF 600's job is twofold:
- Final particulate capture before paint contact: Even with pre-conditioned makeup air, fine particulates (5 microns and below) can carry into the booth and land on a wet finish — the cause of fish-eyes, dust nibs, and other rejects. Per Koch PB-798-3, KDF 600's 99.9% efficiency at 5 microns captures these particles before they reach the painted surface.
- Laminar airflow distribution: The progressively dense fiber matrix evenly distributes the airflow across the entire booth ceiling, so air moves down past the painted part in smooth parallel streamlines — not turbulent eddies. This prevents overspray rebound and gives finishers the clean air pattern needed for high-quality refinish work.
Note: KDF 600 is intake-side diffusion media. For paint overspray collection at the booth exhaust, see the SprayStop family of paint arrestors.
Sizing and ordering notes
- Each variant is one single 65-ft bulk master roll. Order multiple rolls by adjusting the quantity at checkout.
- Cut to size on-site. Bonded synthetic media trims cleanly with a sharp utility knife.
- Available widths cover most downdraft booth ceiling dimensions. For non-standard widths or facility-scale orders, request a quote.
- Heavier widths ship as freight. 60″ and larger widths are oversized and ship LTL freight.
- Pre-cut option: If you don't want to cut media on-site, see the KDF 600 Cut Blankets product page for factory-cut sizes.
- Installation orientation: Per Koch PB-798-3, KDF 600 is installed at the air-intake side of the booth (ceiling on a downdraft booth). Refer to your booth manufacturer's documentation for specific installation procedure.
- Disposal: Follow your local hazardous waste regulations for paint-saturated media if KDF 600 is replaced after capture of paint particulates.

NESHAP compliance: 6H vs. 6X
Paint spray booth operations in the United States are regulated under the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), codified in 40 CFR Part 63. The two subparts most relevant to spray booth filtration are Subpart 6H and Subpart 6X.
Auto Body & Miscellaneous Surface Coating
40 CFR Part 63 Subpart HHHHHH applies to auto body refinishing, collision repair, and miscellaneous surface coating of motor vehicles and mobile equipment.
Spray booth exhaust filtration must demonstrate paint overspray capture efficiency at the level required by the rule, with media tested under ASHRAE 52.1 or an equivalent EPA-recognized method.
Area Source Metal Fabrication & Finishing
40 CFR Part 63 Subpart XXXXXX applies to area-source metal fabrication and finishing operations, including spray painting of fabricated metal parts.
Compliance typically requires control of particulate hazardous air pollutants from spray application through filter-based capture systems verified for the specific coating operation.
Provided for general reference only and does not constitute regulatory or legal advice. The end user and facility operator are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local air quality regulations.

Verify Booth Filter Slot Dimensions Customers are responsible for verifying their paint spray booth's filter slot dimensions, frame depth, and any equipment-specific mounting requirements before placing an order. Booth manufacturers occasionally revise filter slot specifications between model years and production runs. When in doubt, measure the existing filter or consult the booth manufacturer's documentation prior to ordering.
Compliance Responsibility The end user and facility operator are solely responsible for compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local air quality regulations, including but not limited to NESHAP 40 CFR Part 63 Subpart HHHHHH (6H), Subpart XXXXXX (6X), state implementation plans, and local air district rules. RememberTheFilter.com supplies filtration products and general reference information; we do not provide regulatory determinations, permitting guidance, or legal advice.
