When I first started working in this industry I was under the impression that I would mostly be working with garages and car guys who work primarily on painting vehicles for restoration or repairs. The more time I am here the more my eyes are opened to so much more. Who knew paint booths weren’t just for painting cars? Being an art major in college, I have worked on many mediums and actually used a booth a few times! I am starting to settle in here at Standard Tools and am speaking with people all over the country who are interested in our booths, from the Cross Flow to the Semi Downdraft and our Open Faced Booths.
The Cross Flow Paint Booth (CF-1000) is a very popular booth for vehicle painting and is very affordable. It is a simple booth that draws fresh air through the filters in the drive through doors and exhausts out the back of the booth. Here are some of the specs for this booth:
- 14′ W x 9′ H x 26’6″ L interior dimensions
- 14’3″ W x 9’1-1/2″ H x 26’9″ L exterior dimensions
- 10′ W x 9′ H entrance doors
- 34″ tube axial fan with 3-phase – 3 hp motor – 13,965 CFM
- Air tight 18 gauge galvanized steel construction
- 10-48″ 4 tube fluorescent light fixtures with clear tempered glass
- Draft gauge
- Personnel door with clear tempered glass
- Intake/exhaust filters/filter grids – 20″ x 20″
- All hardware, fasteners, sealants
- Assembles in 2-3 days
- EXTRA LONG 26’6″ WORKING LENGTH
Our most popular booth is the Semi Downdraft Booth (the SD-1000). This booth pulls the fresh air from the upper level of this booth and then out the back. The great thing about this booth is it is so diverse you can put drive through doors on this booth to make the work easier. You can also attach an AMU (air makeup unit). Adding a heating unit speeds up the curing time on the paint so you can produce twice the results in ½ the time. Plus …. When winter arrives, wouldn’t you want a heated unit verse a chilly one?

I have also spoken with several customers interested in our open-faced paint booths (OFB), commonly used for refinishing furniture. Our booths are very popular for the furniture restoration business as well as the manufacturing industry…. and even art! The air on these booths is drawn in through the open front and exhausted through the back wall. These booths are smaller, affordable and practical. They are designed in several different sizes, based on your needs.
