Well, I have gone and got a spray booth, a BD512. Hopefully this will help in me not gassing myself and help to get rid of the fumes from spraying, painting and glue. Paid £59.95 with free delivery so not too bad.
Yes, it's a great idea. Even Using mine vented outside with literally no hose the rattle can of primer left a mist on the adjacent surfaces. wear a mask! It's great with the ab, there is less paint and stuff floating about

I tend to do any spray work, rattle can work outside and have a filter mask when working in the shed, but needed something more.
Nice one Si.
Did you ever get that roof sorted as they promised to do?
Ian M
Yep, they finally came out and redid the roof Ian-luckily the old roof with my bitumen on was bone dry so I insisted they lay over the top and use proper felt nails not staples, all seems okay.
Good value Si. Take it it has replaceable filters ?
Also make sure if you have sealed your leak in the shed that you have another inlet for air. If not the fan will not work efficiently.
I would also still wear your face filter.
Laurie
Yep, replaceable filters Laurie. The shed has a vent for incoming air and then this will be exhausted separately. My mask will still be used, better to be safe.
I was thinking about building a clear surround to attach that has fine filter paper at the sides and holes for your hands, I saw a similar one and it made a large difference to dust getting into paint when doing car bodies where it can really ruin a finish but I'm not 100% sure on doing it yet

That is a problem Dougie. A help I find is to close the door slowly as this stirs up the dust. Close windows as you have air movement. Then using a plant sprayer spray the room from the ceiling down with water. Bit bizarre but its works-- mostly.
Good tip, I keep a lot of things in shed including mountain bikes and I haven't put a closing vent in yet either, have to open the door a crack. This shed will never be dust free in afraid but I will keep that tip in mind thanks...
