SUGGESTIONS FOR SAFETY
Before using this unit be sure to read all of the
operation instructions and these safety suggestions
carefully. Afterward, place them in the main control
panel of the booth for future reference. Take special
care to follow the warnings indicated on the unit, as
well as the operating instructions.
PREPARATION OF THE CAR
One of the key elements of a fine finish is a dust free
environment. The design of a Garmat Frontier Paint
Booth is centered on providing a relatively dust free
environment. Your preparation of the car before it
enters the booth is very important to maintain a dust
free environment.
Before moving the car into the spray booth, after the
body of the car is properly prepared to accept the
finish, wash the entire vehicle. Attention during the
wash procedure should be directed to the underside
of the vehicle as well. When the vehicle is
completely dry and ready for refinishing, the entire
vehicle should be blown off with compressed air.
Again, attention must be paid to crevices around
the hood, trunk lid, doors, air vents, etc.
Masking of the vehicle should be performed
outside of the booth. Remember, your efforts to
introduce a clean vehicle into a relatively dust-free
environment provided by the Garmat Frontier
Paint Booth will assist you in your pursuit of the
finest finish with a minimum of work.
PREPARATION OF THE PAINTER
Proper protective clothing and gear is essential for
the safety of the painter and production of a quality
paint job. Paint suits are readily available in a
variety of styles. Garmat recommends a close
weave nylon type that breathes and has a hood.
The suits should be cleaned regularly and should
be worn only when the painter is actually engaged
in painting. The painter should remove all dust
from his clothes before putting the paint suit on.
Whenever entering the Paint Booth, all dust should
be removed from the paint suit, and any
equipment. Anything that the painter brings into
the booth is a potential cause of dust.
WARNING: APPROVED RESPIRATORS
MUST BE WORN WHENEVER FINISHES
ARE APPLIED.
NOTE: THE BOOTH MUST BE
OPERATING WHENEVER ENTERING
THE BOOTH
The Painter should try to stay in the booth as much
as possible and limit going in and out between
paint coats. He should have enough paint in the
booth to complete that portion of the job.
