Re: Paint booth ideas
I was hoping to spray right away, but I just got water in my basement from my old block foundation. I'm having a company come and install a water guard on the block on the inside that will run down to interior drain tile that they will be putting in as well as installing metal I beam braces on one of the walls. I have to demo the walls and ceiling and get everything prepped for them to come before the 4th. Not what I wanted to do this summer.
Back to the booth - I know the windows are close, but thats what I have to work with. I didnt want to lose my garage space where my car sits and I didnt want to take this booth apart and reassemble it. Im hoping that it will be good enough air flow. I can adjust the speeds of the fan as well so I have some flexibility. I like your idea of adding something to bring the intake air in more if need be. We shall see... I gotta go pick some epoxy up soon with a primer gun and paint suit and all that. Its gonna be an expensive year for sure... |

Re: Paint booth ideas
This is a great thread, as I'm going to build a paint booth in my shop. Since my shop is not air conditioned, I'll be buying a window unit to use for the paint booth. It gets way too hot out there!

Re: Paint booth ideas
I painted my 68 in stages not the best but I didn’t have the room for a full booth . 13x13 pop up with 6 mil plastic and a zipper door . I used a small explosion proof fan to pull air out and a box fan to push air in was basically a positive flow booth . Worked very well .
