I'm painting my '55 Chevy Bel Air hardtop. I'm going to start out by just painting the top and I think I'll be ready to do that Wednesday.

Just a few dust nibs wont bother me but hair would. I'll be using a hood w/ supplied air and a full suit.

I'm using 12" dual electric radiator cooling fan set for exhaust. I got a 12V 30 amp power supply off of ebay to run them. The fan set are 2000 cfm which I believe is pretty good. I thought this was a good alternative to expensive sealed fans and I had the fans just lying around anyway.

I may post a picture tomorrow of my setup and see if you guys might have any suggestions.
Good luck and post some pics when you're done.
