I am looking to build a mobile spray booth. Pics posted and ideas suggested would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I made this one from 3/4" PVC & 6 mil plastic from Lowe's using a 20" box fan with furnace filters for exhaust/intake air. I do water-based only -- this is definitely NOT recommended for solvent lacquer (I don't even use it for alcohol-based shellac). I store it on brackets attached to the garage ceiling and just use a tarp for the floor. I purchased the "door" zipper from Lee Valley. Not much to look at but it works for me.

This one is mine, it's a positive pressure booth.

How do you prevent the wind from the fans from blowing your spray all over the place?

it's mounted high on the one side about 6 feet off the ground, to date I haven't had any issues with blowing the spray around.
