yes

ive never sprayed before in my life aswell ( apart from a odd rust sanded out of old cars owned by my brother )

i brought a portable garage 6 M X 3 M ( as my garage is just a standard size and not enough space to swing a cat in ) i put it up on my drive and brought a HVLP spray setup, prep'ed the van and shot the bottom half on 1 day then waited a week or 2 and did the top half

its a really good job, local VW guys thought it was done by a pro

total spend about 300 quid for the whole lot, i still have the garage and spray gear for future projects

Matt where did you get the garage , he will be well pleased if he thinks i have been look all over the place for one as this is what i said he should do but i said one of them things you put up in the garden, Gazibo!

they have them in costco fairly often, i know a few into the VW drag racing and they have them as pit tents


search on ebay aswell, they sell on ebay if you bid on them for about 100 - 125 quid

nice size aswell, as you can drive into them, they have enough head room above and over half a meter either side for spraying

the type from costco are the better of the type, they are more of a canvas material, on ebay look for a guy called Outdoor-Line-Store ( advanced search for ebay stores ), 145 quid delivered from him, ive just checked
