Carcoon Mobile Paint Booth
This is definitely one of the most innovative automotive inventions I have seen, meet the Carcoon blow up paint booth. It may look a little goofy and stupid, but if you watch the video down below you may change your mind. Lately I've been looking for a way to get my 2002 Trans Am WS.6 painted for a low price, I'd rather do it myself and buy all the equipment than have a company paint it once for $4k - $5k. That way, if I have to paint the Trans Am again in 10 years I have all the supplies.
The Carcoon paint booth might be an option I might want to go. It's $3k less than a regular paint booth and comes with all the stuff you need to start painting your vehicle. It costs £ 2,400 in Euro, which converts to $3556.87 American dollars. Still not cheap, but if you're going to be painting and sandplasting a lot over the next few years this could be a very good investment for you.
The Carcoon paint booth uses a three stage filter process, initially air is filtered as it enters the work chamber providing a well ventilated clean dust free environment. The Carcoon paint booth is sold in United Kingdom, so I'm not sure if it meets all the OSHA and EPA regulations over here in the US. I'm going to have to look more into it.
Here's the video to see how the Carcoon booth is blown up, very easy and you can do it for both trucks and cars. Probably even paint a boat as well.
