The nice thing about the tent spray booth is that it can be lit up very easily for good lighting on the subject being painted.

Another sign that my brain is rapidly fading away!:( It never occurred to me just how easy lighting would be in something like this. Might even make a fairly good photo booth depending on the size of the model and how discolored it gets from using it as a spray booth.

It also is good backdrop for photo shoot of model, Kurt..  I do it all the time. Set the light(s) on either side of tent  and you get nice diffuse lighting thru the tent sides  (place lights outside the tent)

Jack,

 

This is a great product and appears to take up very little space.  I do a lot of painting in my driveway and the west wind whips through there constantly.  I will be shopping for one of these today.

 

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.
