As some here know I'm trying to be a better painter for my projects. I've posted about my progress in other threads. This new thread is to ask if any one here has used a tent of sorts for a bug and tree fluff free environment.

Unfortunately I have no space inside (garage, shed or house) to have a solid sided and well vented (by fan) space. I have been using the driveway for now as my "booth" and thankfully this last time I sprayed (a few days ago) just missed the first big pollen bloom But as the spring and summer continue the air born crap will only increase. So once again I find myself thinking of collapsable/pack away options.

I have an 8x8 event tent that i have used for brazing years ago and have tried that recently with a couple of velcro attached walls to better control the breeze direction. For the wind this was OK but otherwise has zero filtering of air born stuff. I have seen event tents with screen/mesh side walls as well as versions with floors and ceilings too (for camping or road workers typically). These can be relatively inexpensive to approaching $2K . Unfortunately the only tent size I see these screened enclosures are for 10x10 tents. I have no problem "trading up" in size if they do the job. But no way will I buy something, contaminate it with paint stuff and then find it is not working out.

So I ask here if anyone has experience with painting in a tent. Or what other enclosure options others have found to work well enough. Here's a link to one version of a low cost screened in tent.
