Thread: Darn dust!!!!

Tweet

dust is a killer. I just started a custom painting bussiness and don't have a good booth yet. Did you try spraying down the walls with water just before painting?

Guess though I won't be painting my own @ my Buisiness anymore. 3 years ago I waited till memorial weekend to shoot the 442 and thought I was in good shape as it rained all 3 days. (Big Big no no If they catch ya around here) figured with every body gone for the holiday and the rain keeping the joggers inside I'd be good. So Built the booth,prepped,and left one bay door half way up and shot it,went back Monday and tore the booth down,no big deal. Tuesday we are working away on customers cars and I hear this chopper hovering real low,run outside and he's right over the power lines in front of the shop ????? Next thing I know I'm getting forms several different times from the County Air Quality folks with mandantory questions asking if we use spray equipment,grinding,sanding or sandblasting equipment etc. Nothing ever came of it but won't try it at the shop again. Only paint job I've got left on the agenda is the coupe might risk doing it @ the house,but the yuppies have me a little concerned so I'll probably find a shop to shoot it when the time comes.
