Paint booth

[HighWing]

I have done what both of Eddie and Jeff suggest. Jim's mention of time of day is a good point as well. My paint booth was in my hangar with half a dozen or so fluorescent light fixtures strategically placed for good lighting. It exhausted through a tunnel made from the plastic sheet running to a back window. On the outside part - inside too, I guess - daytime temps are important as well. I found that cool mornings gave a bit more time for the paint to flow and helped reduce the lemon peel effect. For small parts, I would simply paint outside in the morning before bug time and heavier breezes.

I did a wood frame hanging from the garage ceiling with visqueen walls I could roll up when not in use. It had two wood framed end walls, one with filters and one with fans. And lots of shop lights outside the sides and ceiling. If I had it to do over, I'd cover the floor with red rosin paper that comes in the big roll and put a hinged door in the end wall with the fans to make it easier to get in and out while wearing a bunnny suit and forced air respirator. I also probably wouldn't park my truck as close in the driveway as I did.

Thanks for all the information/suggestions. Id love to put a booth in my garage but the gas water heater is in there and Im concerned that it could be an ignition source....
