    Its gonna be full on mate ! I have a pal who runs a tiny two car pdr and paint shop but it is very very successful as its in a perfect spot! He cant turn work out quick enough so he subs work out to a shop the other side of Birmingham, hes gonna give me that work now but also he is gonna rent a single space off me to do pdr training which he does a lot of and that single space will cover my weeks rent ? So i have a bit of a plan to get it flying mate just need a bit of my own work to top it up lol ! Also im renting my unit from a good little car sales pitch who will give me bit n bobs too ? What you think ?

    Thank you mate ! i was hoping you would see this as i remember pictures of your build from a thread last year !
    I will probably have it a bit higher than floor level and build a box around it for a filter cartridge or cut a piece off those green and white rolls and make something to hold that in place ? Its a case of making do for now but i still want it to work well.
    Do i have to match inlet fan to extractor fan as the extractor im looking at is a proper booth job with motor that sits above so fumes cant get to it ? I was going to use a box fan for inlet but will be smaller would that be a problem and does it have to ballance ? Thanks again

    Thanks for the info guys much appreciated.
    Yes you are correct as we live in rip off britain we only get 1 air cap with the prolite but i had both clear and basecoat guns so i have the te10 and te20 caps ! I had been told that the te20 is a better all round cap so il give that a try next week ! I really love the te20 for clear it suites my close n fast style for clearing ! I may have to treat myself to a 5000 soon tho as im a gun slag lol ! I just sold my iwata supanova as it just didnt suite me at all pos !
