Nice PurpleGT4,
When it finally comes time to paint my spoiler and mirrors, I'll be doing the same thing just with a slightly different fan. Are you blowing air in, or blowing it out? From what I've heard, it's better to blow in with multiple filters set up, this way it keeps the room positively charged and will help keep out dust. Looking forward to seeing how it comes out! -TC -------------------- Live your life for yourself. Don't hold back for anything or anyone.

i've read around with the positive pressure factor. For this i have a fan setup, but i just wanted to clear the walk way. I'd have to duct tape the crap out of the fan tho. I should get another box fan for intake.

Hmm....Couldn't you just create a overhead static placement. For instance, grab a ton of helium filled ballons, rub'em on yourself. Create plenty of static on them. Circulate the air for a hour or so, and relatively become dust free then?
Still like the booth idea though. Creative. Was thinking of renting those of PODs ya know that people use for moving. Sealing it, after a proper dust removal that is, and painting my car in there. Ghetto, but I only have a drive way, so thinking of options. |

If you can fit your car in there, I'm sure you could get it clean and then do the same thing the OP did, lining the whole thing with plastic. -------------------- '97 ST \ Eibach \ KYB \ Kenwood \ Alpine \ Cusco \ OEM+ [sold 10/18]

had the same crazy idea, good to see it the works.
can you explain the positive factor -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |
