Well of course black pipe wpould be about 3rd choice after stainless and fully galvinized. That 4″ reference was what my friend actually did in a smaller industrial shop. But, having time to think and refine a little bit, has anybody used one of those track systems that keep the airline off the floor? Seems like a good idea, but I think you would need one on each side of the booth. Also, what is the consensus on using 2 people to paint a complete car? I have heard it aids in getting proper “wet out” provided both painters are competent.
You are right about the booth upgrades, 8″ would be some effective insulation. I am currently on assignment in China and they seem to cut to the chase pretty quickly. In researching getting a booth for my company almost everyone is a downdraft insulated type with about 2″inches of insulation and with a propane or natural gas heater. And they go for about 10-15K. Anyways, the 2” lines sound good but a buddy of mine who installs fire sprinklers in commercial tried something unique. Sing he had access to a whole lote of 4″ black pipe he did a whole 50′ deep shop in that. The extra volume provided by the 4″ pipe acted like an extra tank and kept the pulsing down to a minimum.
