    Very clever if you have the room for it and nothing hanging from the walls. Another dirty way for a quick booth is to hang clear plastic sheets to the size you want and good exhaust fan and a good flesh air supply and your on your way. Temporary at best but it's cheap and easy. I, like the movable walls the best, if I only had the room.

    That is a good idea and could be used on a smaller scale or modified to suit your own needs. :cool:

  22. ================================================

    Yeah,I painted my truck in a portable garage last spring..
    Once the sun gets on them,they get pretty warm..so just got to watch your temps for drying time.
    Ran a fan out each end blowing into a filter,

    wore a resporator..

    worked for me..

    did it after I saw the post of the guy painting his car in a car port ..on the HAMB.

    Just be careful and use sealed fan motors. One spark from the fan or light and your toast. It happened here a few years ago. Be safe, John

    What! How do you get dust and **** in the paint if you have one of those???
    I have too much schtuff in the shop. land-o-chaos.
    3/4 pvc,handy 90degree ends,h/f blue tarp. something for the wind to blow over into the fresh paint.
    Back to krylon.

    We just got the clear plastic 3ml 10 x 20 rolls and hung it from the ceiling.
    Worked fine!
