Rotating finish booth...

Are these bearings okay to use?

I will have a small room dedicated just to spraying finish on the cues and plan to build a spray booth to hold 4-6 cues at a time. I will have a bathroom with an outside exhaust close by that I could tap into for ventilation. What is a good fan or what is the minimum CFM that is required to suck the fumes out of the spraying room? How big of a diameter is needed?
Any suggestions for a reasonably prices exhaust fan?

Thanks,
Zim

Anybody want to mention UV clear brands. I've tried epoxy based and polyester based and didn't like either. Had a customer(auto refinisher) who turned me on to Transtar Euro Clear 2/1 ratio auto clear coat. I cheat and add 1 part ureathane thinner and it shots like the old PPG 2020.
Really bright finish. About 180.00 for 1 gallon finish and 1/2 gallon hardner.

I use a U.V. finish but just use it for a filler and build coat. I put on as many coats as necessary for a smooth, completely encased film and then I spray Transtar clear but it's not Euro clear. Stuff I use is 4/1 ratio and I also add Transtar reducer to thin out a little.

I use to use the 4-1, but really fell in love with the Euro, only problem I have with it is the local store only cares the gallon size. They stock smaller in the 4-1. If you can get a sample, try it, IMHO it's much brighter and polishes out nicer than the 4-1 stuff. I tried the transtar uv finish, but it didn't seem real clear to me. I only have a 200wpi light, so may not be getting a full cure.

If you are interested in UV Finish, I sell a finish that you might be interested in. In our opinion this is the best UV finish on the market for Cues. Sprays great, settles nice, builds good, sands and buffs to a beautiful shine. Also will pass all test for adhesion. PM me if interested. Jim
