Building A Custom Paint Booth at Home Sometimes you may need your own paint booth to do some minor paint jobs at home. You may not want to spend money on a paint booth and instead make one yourself. This will both save your money and you will be able to create something out of scratch. Making a custom paint booth is not that hard. We will guide you through the process and tell you topaint booth design requirements so that you can do it yourself at home. Paint booths will help you do paint jobs without getting paint all over the floor. Without further ado, let’s see how to do this DIY project. Paint Booth Design Requirements
Since it’s a simple paint booth, you won’t need that many things. You will need PVC pipe, plastic sheet, duct tape, box fan, and filter. The steps for making the project is written below in order. Take Measurements First, you need to figure out how big a paint booth you want. An 8-foot-wide booth will be able to fit a car but if you need it for smaller projects, make it smaller. Then make a sketch to find out how much pipe you will need. Find out the length of the pipe for your booth and cut them accordingly. Using a permanent marker to mark where to cut helps. Connect the Pipes The next step is connecting those pipes. Using a T-connector really helps. Build the corner posts of the pipe and then gradually secure every pipe by fully integrating it into the PVC joint. PVC pipes are hard and can handle pressure, so don’t worry about breaking them. Apply as much pressure as you need. Enclose The Booth At this stage, lay a plastic sheet over the whole booth but leave a little space so that you can pull over the pipes. Then along the back, trim and tape the plastic and cut and tape the plastic that are on the sides in rear. Cover the front of the plastic and then lay down a drop cloth which will fit inside the booth and tape it to the corners of the booth’s inside.
Create Ventilation Cut a structure and hole for a box fan and face it toward the inside of the booth; the structure and the hole should be the exact size of the fan. Take the filter you’ve got and sell it to the backside of the fan using duct tape. This will keep dust outside. Now, mount a furnace filter on the opposite side of the fan with duct tape. Conclusion Remember to use the fan always when you’re using the booth. Also, your filters will need replacement on a regular basis since dust and overspray will fill it. When replacing it, use a blade to cut the duct tape holding it but careful not to cut the plastic. DIY projects are fun and creative. They give us a sense of accomplishment. You can be creative and make some changes of your own but this is the basics of how to make paint booth systemsat your own home.
