      PowderCoat you can get done inexpensively, so to get into that, I don't see the return. In our shop we have separate Spray Guns for each color. How big of an Oven are you going to have - ours is as big as the spray booth.

      If you do it, I would rent out the Booths on a Daily Basis - it doesn't matter if it is a Hobbiest or a Journeyman. You don't want to get your Booth tied up for days on end & I would not let people keep any vehicle there overnight.

      I agree about the overnight thing but I thought the paint had to cure before it can be driven.
