Thanks to all who appreciate my comments...all I am trying to do is help those who ask for help.

As for your "homemade paint booth". it appears to be working for you.

I know you did not ask and it is hard to tell by the photo's...so if I am "stepping out of line''...you can CORRECT ME...that is fine.

But what I see in the "booth" are panels that are painted...and with the gloss on them...I "assume" that they have been cleared.

I might want to CAUTION you that if you are painting parts off the car and clearing them...you MIGHT run into a color difference when the parts are installed. Especially if it is a metallic/pearl color. Other than that...looks like you have got it "ready to go".
