The main purpose of the spray
booth in the context of a water based coating is not
to remove toxic fumes as much as it is to remove any overspray
from the painted surface and the painter as well as provide
a dust free environment so that the surface doesn't become
contaminated.
Commercially available spray booths (a cross draft design
is good) are a good option.

If you decide to build your own
spray room, certain rules of thumb need to be followed.
The total volume of air flow can be calculated by taking the
cross sectional area (not length) in square feet and multiplying
by 100 to arrive at the CFM requirement. Ex. 8 ' by 10' would
require 8,000 CFM.
