How to Use a Paint Booth

Video Transcript

Hi, I'm Doug. I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods and we're going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. The paint booth that we're paint the calipers for the GTO in, has a number of important controls. There's an adjuster here on the right that controls the amount of pressure in the booth. You want a slight positive pressure inside of a paint booth. We're forcing clean air into the paint booth and we want any leakage that occurs to be clean air leaking out. If this thing reads below zero then there's going to be a negative pressure in the booth and it will be sucking in dirty air from the shop around it. Right now, Andy's in there doing spray heated. We've got hot air going in there. Up here at the top left there's a thermostat we've got it set at 80 degrees, it's running around 89 degrees; 88. When he's done painting, he'll come out here and we'll throw it into the bake cycle and finish drying the paint.
