How to build a paint booth in your garage without pissing off your wife!

[markd]

Well, I lied about pissing off your wife. My wife is still upset that she “did not get her garage back” when I sent my car to a local body shop. Now, when she complains about me spending time in the garage, I remind her that the sooner I get done the sooner she can get the garage back!

I spent about $75 dollars in materials and it took about 4 hours to build. I am sandblasting and painting all the small parts instead of paying someone else to do it.

I have used the paint booth several times over the past two months and it works great! It keeps the fumes from getting into the house and I don’t have to worry about dust, bugs, dirt getting and the kids touching the wet paint.

Materials:

• 4 x Roll of clear plastic 8x10'
• 2 x cans of aerosol spray adhesive
• 8 x 8' x 1" PVC Pipe
• 4 x 10' x 1" PVC Pipe
• 8 x elbows 1"
• 8 x T connectors 1"
• 1 x can pipe dope
