DIY Spray Booth - how to spray in controlled temperature & sheltered from wind

That is brilliant! I'm going to have to try that

 

Ill definitely have to try this! The weather this summer has been crazy, so this would probably help loads!

 

Thank you! I knew there must be a way to spray inside, but my brain never got me there.

 

with some small adaptions, this could be used for sanding as well.

 

Thanks for making this tutorial, my partner has C.O.P.D, so spraying indoors is impossible. But, with this spray box I might be able to spray indoors and vent the box outside. Definitely making one this weekend.

 

This is a brilliant idea, and we have lots of shipping boxes standing around. Maybe it is also possible to construct some kind of hanging device for pieces which need to be sprayed all around...I have to figure something out.

 

All I would say is.. Use packing tape, not duct tape. Duct tape tends to come off of corrugate.. It doesn't bond as well.
I'm going to try doing something similar but I'm going to use something like this and I want to make it air tight:

 

Do you get the recommended 18" distance from the spraying surface with this?

 

This is an amazing idea! Thank you so much for all the tips and answers to my questions on Instagram (PlayfulDead). I am on the hunt for a proper box to try this out now!

 

THIS IS A BRILLIANT IDEA. Thank you very much for sharing! I will be trying this myself. I was so upset my sealant never turned out like I wanted it to xD

 

This is amazing! Thanks!

 

Great idea!

 

Thank you for the good advice.

 

This is so cool!

Thanks!

 

Helpful tutorial. I like the idea and the though that a good sized plastic container would fit most of my needs. Great work

 

I'm wondering where to find a box like that. It looks like the lid opens and closes, but they're not common to find around here.

I thought of just using a copy paper box. Not sure if a normal box that folds in at both front and back would work.

Otherwise, love this tutorial. I'm going to find a way to amke one of these.

 

Thank you thank you thank you!!! My sealant always seems to misbehave and this is so genius! what a wonderful summer project this would be now where will I find room for it haha!

 

Genius!!! I always do spray outdoors, but it's really not convenient. I'll try this! Thank you for sharing!

 

I live in Ireland and the humidity is always above 75% apart from a few odd days during the summer, a little covered spray booth will definitely come in handy!

 

How does this tutorial not have more likes?! Thank you for posting this, I'm definitely going to try something similar!

 

Cool lucky to find this post I am sooo scared of every spray I made to my doll. But I really love the feel of her skin after having a new spray

 

Great tutorial, thanks for sharing! I made my own box using some of the same steps and it came out better than I could've hoped for.

 

I need to make myself one of these! I live in a first floor apartment that's half sunk so no patio. I used to go on my balcony to spray and now I have to leave the building completely. Also since I live in a cold climate half the year I couldn't do anything. This will invaluable, though I think I may go with the suggestion of using a clear storage tub.

 

I may need to make one of these for myself, since it's usually too humid outside where I live to spray MSC outside. Thanks for the tutorial!

 

This is such a good idea! I live in Canada so I can’t use sealant for like 7 months out of the year, which really puts a damper on my enthusiasm for customizing

 

I finally really needed to make one so I did! Had to improvise a few things but I'm finished and I'm excited to try it out!
