Spray Paint Booth

Part 5:  Spray Booth Rebuild October 2025

After a year of using the booth, I ran into several issues:
1) the booth was too low for me to see inside
2) the spray chamber was too small
3) I had poorly designed how the filters fit.

I cut down a wood bedrail and installed on the bottom. It is held on with four plywood tabs.

Here are the filters as I had them. They are fiberglass and were hard to cut and fit in, plus I got fiberglass on my skin.

I removed the housing and built a styrene frame to fit a 12 X 18 filter.

Extensions were glued to the sides along with a brace.
The top was reused unmodified. Old filter mounts were discarded.
Interior painted with white appliance paint.

Air ducts have extensions installed inorder to fit against the frame.
