Re: My new booth...

Very nice...but I'm wondering, does that shop vac provide enough sucking power to get the excess powder out of the booth?

Re: My new booth...

Id hope the shop Vac would. They suck up good. Its been along while since Ive used a Hobby gun but do they waste that much powder to fill that booth with dust?

Re: My new booth...

I had a booth about that size. Cleaning it is a job. I did mine is sheet rock and then tried plastic. The plastic sheets where great to hose off. I ended up going smaller again since I really wanted the space back.

Re: My new booth...

I am not sure if the shop vac will pull the excess powder or not because I have yet to shoot anything in the booth yet...my oven died so I have pick up a new one before I can shoot anything. If the shopvac doesn't pull enough then I plan on installing a small fan or something in the vent to help pull the air out of the booth. I imagine it will be a PITA to clean but hopefully most the excess powder will be captured by the vent system...I dunno tho.

Thanks for the comments guys.

I use a 1hp fan like people use for wood working running through three stages of powder coating filters on mine. My plan is to run a 2hp next after I pick up a better gun.
