In the Paint Booth 10/06/2003
The first big push on the project is to get it painted before
it gets too cold to paint. Hopefully this will actually happen, if not
then we'll finish in the spring. The first step was to remove almost everything
that we don't want painted blue from the car. The next step was to build a
poor man's paint booth in the garage. The goals of the paint booth are to
control dust, provide ventilation, control overspray and keep the paint fumes
out of the house. To do this I used 3 rolls of clear plastic sheeting
stapled into the garage stall. Ventilation will be provided by a furnace
filter installed in two windows of the garage door and an exhaust fan installed
in the walk in door. Lighting will be 8 fluorescent shop lights installed
on the ceiling and floor plus a halogen work light to be moved around as needed.
