- After a long delay, the paint booth is finally operational. It still needs some little tweaking and small things to button it up, but at least i am painting in it. The tube axial fan is working great.

Impressive. This is the best booth I’ve seen diy, right on man!
The one paint booth I ever painted in we kept a garden sprayer and misted the floor before painting to keep any concrete dust from getting in the air when walking around shooting paint. It seemed to help a lot.
Your workshop is briliant, nice tools, all the best and good job.
Of 20+ home made paintbooth videos I've watched, this one I'm thinking "this guy has an idea how to make something functional".... then towards the end of the video we see his shop and I'm like "ohhhh, of coarse....this isn't the first time he's put something together." 😍💙🔧
Nice walk through. You done an excellent job with the booth Gary
Thank you sir!
Glad to see the paint booth up and running!
Nice set up there, I'm thinking of making something myself. For the intake filters i'd probably build some kinda roof shelter off of it to protect from the rain, Guessing you've probably already sorted that out by now though! Thanks for sharing the video.
Looking awesome. That booth is just the ticket.
yes, its really perfect for what I need. The fact that its too small for cars will help me turn down offers to paint cars, which I don't want to get into! lol
Very nice Gary. Can't wait to see some awesome projects coming out of there. Thanks for the update.
Looks great Gary, glad to see it working for you. You may want to switch bulbs on your outside light. I'm thinking painting in dark hours and bugs hanging out right next to your door. Getting in when you step out. Thanks for sharing
You need to find a mechanical louver from somewhere... They are powered and can switch on with your fan. That will allow your intake to open when in use and close when not in use. There are non-powered ones too that you can open by hand, but they aren't as cool.
I have seen the ones that are made for the Fan outlet, and I definitely need that also to keep the critters out, but a louver for the intake would be huge! even if i built one, which would be fun to make, would be expensive in materials alone
Looks like a really nice paint shop..
Que gran trabajo, muchas felicidades
Hey Gary! Booth is looking good. Hope you're doing well. Take care
Thanks Rich!
Your paint booth sure is sweet and well done Gary, you should have hit up Stan over at Bar Z, that's one of his specialties!
Hey Ray, yea no doubt, Stan does some awesome systems, i am on a budget, i bet the ones he puts in start at like $50K, and I was trying to do mine for like $5K lol.
Congratulations my friend, glad you have it going, I know it's been a journey, but it looks great
Thank you sir, appreciate the kind words :)
Good stuff Gary but Sir.... I agree with Charlie that my Firebird won't fit through that door on your paint booth.
What kind of fan did you use, and where did you get it, how much did it cost?
Dream set up right there ❤
you know......if you make a plenum box in front of that tubeaxial fan....you would get way more pull from it!!!!! build it 8foot wide 8 foot high if you have that if not just to the top. and 24 inches deep!! you will be impressed! And maybe a screen over that fan so some kid don't loose their arm.
Nice setup. That flag is really awesome!!
Can you use a just a simple dehumidifier, in your paint room? You might get a little water in your paint put it’ll be pulled out in the drying process?
Looks good Gary. Maybe extend your roof that covers the dust collector and compressors?
Great job on the both. Sure beats renting one 😁
Hi, I like the idea of your paint booth and I'm planning to make my own too, my question is how is the smell from outside the booth, does the filter helps reduce the smell of the paint? that is my only concern because I don't my neighbors to complain about me while I'm doing my painting works. Thanks in advance for your reply.
the filters do nothing for the fumes, very strong smell, obviously depending on the type of paint, but automotive paint is very strong smelling
Hi !! Nice job ! Can you make a video in painting action please ? I want to see the blowing capacity of your system ( I am actually built a paint booth in my garage with this type of extractor fan, mine is 600 mm diameter for 21m2 room)
Good video. Are you using explosion-proof lights and fan? (Which you should always use.) If so, where did you get the lights? Note that vapor-proof lights may be different from explosion-proof.
i've been thinking about doing something like this but struggling to figure out how to keep the building warm enough to get the paint to be in range. I'm guessing you live somewhere hot and this isn't an issue - but if you are gonna deal with this I'm curious if you have a plan .
i live in texas, so its warm enough to paint 9-10 months out of the year and the 2 colder months there are also days that i could paint. I dont paint everyday, so i would just batch up the work and paint it on the warmer days of the winter. You can heat up the room, head up the items your goign to paint and heat up your paint, and do a quick paint job on something without the exhaust fan on, because that will just pull cold air in. then maybe after the paint has been sprayed and flowed out you can fire up the fan for a couple min to pull the overspray out, then get the heat back on yoru painted items to make sure they cure and flow out... so you have to be creative
@@turbocobra ok well thanks for responding
U can paint in low temperatures, I resprayed a car at 0 degrees C and no problem, it just means u need to wait longer between coats
I like it... keep it up...
Also, spray the ground with insect killer to help with insects, etc.
Awsome flag Gary. I am interested in one.
Where did you get you fan? What was the cost?
Hello
What kind of fan are you using? Thanks!
That filter stuff u have used. Is pre filter for heppa paper filters. Get some heppa paper.
Nice work my g
aye Mumbo jumbo, and another thang. You should of put your intake filters to the left and right sides of your diy booth like our freind pete's and many others. NOt the middle......In a side flow booth, the sides form two CURTAINS of air pulling contaminants AWAY from the center and carry them downstream, it's ok though, your still learning. Taking years, but learning. Your ok though, one of my booths is outside and has the whole wall of 20x20 filters like yours but more even in the doors and it's ok for them to get wet. Ive even rinsed them out some times.......wet your floors and wet sweep the water out helps alot
very good ! how do I do
to calculate the size of the air intake?
Looks nice! How am I gonna fit my Plymouth in there?
A plymouth logo you say? it will fit in there easily! #nocarsallowed
When are you gonna put barn wood over the foam in your shop?
Is the ventilation sufficient to avoid vapor building up below LEL? How do you determine that?
Good job
Have you ever considered a HVLP set up, like a Apollo Precision power 5.
Nice job man.
Very good video! Could you share the make and models of the lights and fan you used?
The lights i got on ebay, honestly i wouldn't buy them again they are very cheaply made, the plastic is very brittle. But, they seem to be working fine and seal up fine. The fan is a Dayton 24" Tubeaxial non direct drive paint booth fan.
I used led vapor proof lights from hypericon on Amazon. They are bright and well made in my opinion. I got them in 5000k so they are a bright white. Just a suggestion for you.
Hey Gary not to pry too much but didn't you use to be friends with Pete? I was wondering what your experience was and what happened. Just seeing if we had the same experience!!! Keep Rocking!!!
Well I used to live about 10 minutes from his shop, now I live 1.5 hours away, so don't really go by there much and just kind of lost contact with him. I think he is moving to Utah also, right?
@@turbocobra My experience with Pete is constant phone calls to the point I didn't want to answer anymore. It was like too much Pete!!! Now he's blocked my phone number and I'm sure I'm a piece of shit. He has even removed a video of him and Norm coming to my shop in Houston!!! I like Pete, but don't need to talk to him everyday. Get off the phone at 8pm and he was calling at 7:30 the next morning to talk about nothing!!! Too much Pete!!! Let me tell you he doesn't talk good about you!!! I brought your channel up once and felt I had to drop the subject!!! I'm sure I'm the same in his mind now. I was just wondering what your experience was. Keep Rocking!!!
what kind of extractor is that? how can I get it? how much cfm do you extract?
Where did you get your fan from?
Where did you get the fan?
Hi Gary, just wondering if a good concrete paint would cut down on the dust from the concrete floor ? Cheers !
yes, I have some concrete sealer left from when I did the main shop, I had intended to use that on the floor but just haven't done it, but it would deftly cut down on dust from the floor
Best and cheapest is to lay down inside/outside carpet
how do you deal with the smell?
Very nice
the paint booth is finally operational. It still needs some little tweaking
Are you using Explosion protects fans and lights?
yep!
Which fan were you using? Was it explosive proof?
yes its the explosion proof one
Mby start with an awning for the intake side, or even a second wall, with empty space between the 2
I had thought about an awning, but really like the idea of a second wall with a space there, I can use some of the extra panels
those lights would not pass code for a paint booth, you cant have wires or even the lights them selves in a paint booth, also no fire suppression system. also the fan should have a duct with fire suppression.
yea til some dies in a fire caused by a spark from the wiring and paint fumes! There was a fire at a maaco in richmond va caused by a badly maintained paint booth it happens all the time. This paint booth dosent even have a fire suppression system! So yea nobody gives a shyt as you say until someone dies, dummy!
The lights look like a lambo tail light 💡 or a predator self destruct watch
Door sweep/threshold
Did anyone noticed the weed plant to the right of the door 😂😂😂
Sweet
I bet painting at night attracts all kinds of Bugs.
That’ll def work...... 110% Ameri - can
So its more for like parts ,because you can't fit a car in there
Dyback that dull when no air flow.
and uh, and uh, you know X 1000
this coming from a guy that can't hold a camera correct to make youtube videos? Dude, vertical videos belong on facebook or IG, not youtube.
@@turbocobra : /
where is the fan from?
