Tye Lee Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I am just getting back into the model car hobby and know absolutely nothing about a paint booth. Im use to just sticking the body of my car to a pop bottle, taking it outside and spraying away. I searched on here for paint booths to see what I could find and it was mostly about buying a paint booth. My plans are to just build one considering that will probably be the cheapest way out until I save the money to buy one. So if anyone could give me some direction on what type of fan I should get, how I should wire it, where I should mount the fan, and just the construction as a whole I'd greatly appreciate it, oh and pics would be great to!!! Thanks Tye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tye Lee Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 Oh and I forgot to mention also that I stay in an apartment so I have to be a lil more creative with the ventilation part... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
