The first advise I would give you is to write in sentences and use proper case and punctuation.

electric furnace? assumeing you have a ventilating airflow in/out the booth - use the furnace to heat the other room - draw the booth air intake from that area, vent outside - don't need 90 to 'set paint', just time ... if you don't have the booth vented, ignore this advice, consult yer doctor instead grin

Hey, Merriam-Webster, I'm betting you meant ADVICE since your usage of ADVISE in the above sentence is incorrect.

I should have put the word "advise" in parenthesis to quote the spelling in the first post.

I'm not trying to nit pick, but if you like to read stuff that looks like a kids phone text message, be my guest. I'm not trying to create a new language. You didn't spell and punctuate just for me did you Sonic?

no abla

Ok guys, no more picking on people's grammar in this thread or it gets locked. Let's just concentrate on the question, ok?

I would not put a furnace in a paint booth. Even if you keep it shut off when you are painting it will get crusted with lots of flammable and hazardous overspray and become both a fire and a health hazard. If you want to heat the booth run duct work and shut the furnace off when painting.

Yep. I'd put in in another room or it will come out looking like the paint color, especially the squirrel cage. For a temp. situation, you can use cardboard for duct work and through it away when you're finished. Did that many times...
