If I was building a temp booth I would use plywood one end would have inlet filters with furnance fans outside the booth blowing towards the filters then other end of booth would have barn. Style doors with filters attached at the bottom of them to have fumes filter before they go out to my neighbors cut holes on the sides and roof attach plexi glass over them etc then place my lighting over the plexi this is so fumes don’t get a chance to get into wiring don’t want a fire that’s a basic idea there but still after a few jobs you should be able to afford a booth
If your serious about painting cars just lease a booth from autobodytoolmart there like 60 bucks a month right now or go to your local paint supplier I know in my area industrial finishess will hook up a booth and a whole paint system for free don’t get caught spraying without a booth not worth the fines when you get caught
Not 2 cups worth mix ratio is 4 to 1 for the clear so I put in 2 parts of clear 2 parts of hardner in it I mean, I personally think it needs a rebuild sometimes my boss leaves the guns submerged in lacquer thinner all night long
I just used a new gun I picked up a devilbiss tekna it was pretty good liked it noticed it had a nice trigger motion compared to the sata 3000 but the sata has been used a lot and abused so yeah but I would recommend tekna

That sucks link won’t work but anyways you need atleast 60 gallon tank pumping out 12+ cfm and is 100% duty cycle
I use a sata 3000 hvlp digital with 1.3 tip for basecoat
But I find it uses a lot of material but I get zero orange peel with it I also spray clear with it
Your glasurit rack looks better than mine at the shop 🙁
I just hand sand with 400 then hit with a couple coats of u tech 4.0 clear and I see zero scratch marks etc come out perfect
Thank you everybody for the advice and I think I’m just guna paint on my own made 1600 this week for just two cars talk to some ppl said I’d paint there car for 800 bucks so I bought ss from my local supplier fix some minor dings removed trim headlights etc and shot the cars in my old boss paint booth gave him 200 bucks for letting me use his booth then I prepped a 2012 Mazda 6 for him so next time I get to use his booth for free ain’t a bad deal I guess and I did tell the ppl that is gonna be shot in ss and etc and they understood.
Sounds like my old shop I left on a couple cars I scuffed up the e coat then just shot base and cleared it. I didn’t like it told him this isn’t right but he told me its his shop his rules etc and we were using basf products
