we over did it with the booth as when we sealed the front off the paper on the floor lifted quite high when the fan was on
dragging shit in ,was more for the heat than dust
only roof and wing tops to polish tho ,
gun finish
un sure weather to paint the grey back on the wheels ????????????
moved stuff round so I can paint doors an boot lid Friday evening
