![]() Ha! When that exhaust fan starts up, it is sucking outside air into the booth, as you do not want to leave the garage doors closed and recirculate the air. You say by having the booth inside the garage, you will have heat. You are planning to run the exhaust of the booth (solvent laden air) into the intake of the heater? Have you ever seen an afterburner work? The heater box design will not let the air get too hot to be blown into the fabric booth but warm enough to do the job.įirst, no sparks inside the booth, so that means no thermostat inside the booth. I’m thinking a propane one would easily produce enough heat to get the job done. A thermostat inside the booth would control the running of the heater. The make up air blower would get it’s air from the back of the box. Idea on making a heat box with charcoal filters, with a Reddy Heater blowing into it. With my own in-house paint and body man now, it will be great keeping everything right here on my property. It’s basically cheaper than loading all the pieces up and going to a paint shop. The way I look at it is that’s about $225 per car if I replace the booth after 6 cars. I realize the booth I bought is probably not the highest quality but I’ll only be doing 1-3 cars a year so it should hold up at least for a couple years. For a 1932 car that’s disassembled, my 26x13x10 booth will have plenty of room. I have a large concrete pad behind my garage that this booth will fit nicely on. My booth was $1,400 including the two blowers, repair/patch kit, tie down ropes, tie down stakes, a storage bag, and free shipping. If all sanding and prep work is done before the car is put inside the booth, dust and dirt should not be a problem. This is what I wanted to hear! I’ve read other threads on IBs and people were saying lots of negative things yet they had never used one which is so typical of internet keyboard junkies.
