The fun of homemade painting is that once you practice painting a part with a "can spray" or the original color of the
You can also find out by DIY painting your helmet. 'Good'!!'Bad ass.!!It's secondary to the challenge.!!
Unless you have actual experience, you can't learn paint from theory alone.
Let's get some tips and tricks for making such a DIY paint job fun and beautiful from the work environment.
Painting booth materials are large cardboard boxes and duct tape.
Carbeck is an Aichi-based company that originally developed, manufactured, and sold painting equipment and materials for professionals. According to Mr. Ukita, it is important to understand the "air flow" and to use duct tape when assembling cardboard boxes to make them more airtight. A vacuum cleaner is used to draw in the paint mist.
A general-purpose air filter is installed at the back of the paint room.
It depends on the size of the parts you want to paint, but if you are so inclined, you can make your own large paint booth using large cardboard boxes. For the back wall, you can use a general-purpose air filter, which can be purchased at any home improvement store. We recommend using multi-purpose wire mesh, which can be purchased at any 100-yen shop, to set up the parts in the booth.
Let's use a vacuum cleaner to pull out the paint mist.
A small compressor and paint gun will allow you to do even higher quality painting jobs, not only with a can sprayer, but also with a small compressor and paint gun. A tubular vacuum cleaner is industrial-grade and can be used tougher than the average home indoor vacuum cleaner. It's a great tool to have in your garage or workshop to assist in various maintenance tasks.
This room is the most important part of the construction of the cardboard booth. It is a "chamber room" behind the paint room. Compared to the size of the paint room, the chamber is smaller in volume. When you vacuum the chamber by the vacuum cleaner's vacuum resistance, the chamber room becomes "negative pressure" and the filter sucks in the paint mist from the paint room efficiently.!!
Professional Equipment "Dream Box
The "Dream Box" made by Carbeck, known as a professional paint booth, is a development of the "principle" of the cardboard booth. If you have a piece of land, you can complete a paint booth by installing this equipment. In fact, there are many cases of professional paint shops that have opened with this Dream Box.
- Point 1 - Decide on the size of the cardboard box in anticipation of the size of the parts you want to paint.
- Be sure to install a replaceable general-purpose air filter between the paint chamber and the chamber chamber. If you don't have a filter, the chamber chamber chamber will not be under negative pressure.
- Point 3. Connect the cardboard box firmly with cloth gummed tape. Attach the gummed tape firmly so that the airtightness does not decrease.
- Point 4 - Industrial vacuum cleaners are easy to use. The paint mist is filtered through the air filter, so it is unlikely to have a significant impact on the vacuum cleaner filter.
- Point 5. Thick cardboard boxes are used to create a solid structure that can be used repeatedly.
The world of homemade paint has changed dramatically with the spread of various types of can sprays. It is said that the appearance of a small compressor that could be used with a household power source gave impetus to such a movement. With the spread of the compressor, a variety of small paint guns appeared next. Anyway, the world of DIY painting has become more fun!!! With these tools, you can not only paint your own special paint, but you can also paint your favorite helmet with your own original design "one of a kind" through a combination of cutting sheet cutouts and masking.
The so-called "field spraying" is not a good way to enjoy such an original paint job. The paint mist can be sprayed around the work environment, and more importantly, the paint smells bad.!! What a complaint from a family member or neighbor. When we talked to some well-known professional painters, they all told us that they used to receive complaints from their families about their work in the past: ....... We consulted with Carvec, a company in Aichi Prefecture that develops, manufactures and sells professional painting equipment, and they offered us a simple solution for creating a good working environment.
Mr. Ukita, a representative of Carvec, told us that the most important thing is to "create a space" for high quality painting. The company has developed and sold the "Dream Box", an advanced version of the paint booth principle introduced here, for professionals. The company's catchphrase is that the Dream Box has already been manufactured in large numbers, and if you have a place to install it, a power source and a compressor, you can operate it as a professional paint shop as soon as tomorrow.
If you want to paint small parts on your own, the cardboard booth is the way to go," says Ukita. A combination of the room space for painting and the principle of efficiently absorbing paint mist that is scattered around the room, the cardboard booth is a great improvement in workability. For us Sunday mechanics, I can assure you that this is a simple piece of equipment that is equivalent to our status. The most important thing is that the filter will efficiently suck in the paint mist that is sprayed onto the car so that it doesn't bother the people around it, and most importantly, the paint finish will be better. The cardboard booth is a relatively easy and low-cost way to achieve this ideal.
