We built the spray booth out of heavy plastic hanging from the underside of the mezzanine in my shop. We even put brass grommets in the plastic so we could reuse the booth over and over. The booth was up for a couple days before we sprayed the Jeep. We wet the floor prior to spraying.
Dust was not the issue. Skill with the gun, getting the pressure and spray pattern correct, etc were the issues.
With the cost of materials it’s hard to “practice” on a whole car.
I was kidding when I mentioned getting everything ready and then having a pro come in and do the actual spraying but maybe hiring someone for a couple hours to show how to achieve a good pattern from the gun, etc, would be worth it.
But for the Chevelle, which is driven everyday rain or shine and left in grocery store parking lots, etc, I don’t want to spend 10k.
