QUESTION?
Downdraft, Semi-Downdraft, Side Downdraft and Crossdraft — What’s the difference? Which one is better? Which one do I want my vehicle refinished in?
NOTE:
It’s always a good idea to make an effort to educate yourself as much as possible on the equipment and training of the shop you choose to repair your vehicle. The following are the most common types of spray booths used today.
ANSWER.
Downdraft, semi-downdraft, side downdraft and crossdraft are all styles of airflow in a paint booth.
Air is introduced to the booth through the ceiling in the first 25-30% of the booth. The exhaust fan continues to pull the air through the working chamber, causing the air to change directions and become parallel to the floor. Air is then drawn over the product, through the exhaust chamber at the booth rear, and vented to the atmosphere through ducting.
Downdraft airflow is the best type of airflow for a paint booth. It does an excellent job of controlling overspray and contamination and provides a safe, clean environment in which to paint.
Because of the cost of a pit and volume of airflow, it is also the most expensive style. Downdraft spray booths bring air in through the filtered ceiling and down through the floor filters into an exhaust chamber which is then exhausted free of hazardous particles. In addition, Dingman’s auto body repair Omaha have deployed the GFS recirculation system in every spray booth. With recirculation, once air has passed through the working chamber during the cure cycle, 80% of the air is pulled through the filters and back into the air replacement unit. At that point, the air is then combined with 20% fresh air, reheated and returned to the working chamber. The ability to recirculate the heated air, rather than heat the ambient air, provides a great saving in energy and fuel costs greatly diminishing the environmental effect.
Downdraft spray booths will provide the cleanest possible finish, and Dingman’s auto body paint Omaha is happy to provide these benefits to each of our auto body paint Omaha customers.

Dingman’s Collision Uses Eco Friendly Paint
Paint Serving You and Our Environment
Dingman’s Collision Center agree that serving customers like you means delivering exceptional results in ways that are environmentally responsible.
AkzoNobel, the world’s largest paint and coatings manufacturer believes that being a responsible steward of the planet goes hand in hand with being technologically innovative. So making superior auto paint while protecting the environment is their goal every day.
What is the difference?
You may have heard people discussing “waterborne” and “solvent-borne” paints and wondered how they are different. Does choosing one mean better results and the other mean better for the environment?
Simply put, solvent-borne coatings use petrochemical products as the main solvent for thinning the paint. Although effective, this method releases volatile organic compounds (VOC) into the atmosphere during the painting process. Waterborne coatings use water as the primary thinning method which greatly reduces VOC emissions.
Do waterborne coatings perform as well as solvent-borne? Absolutely. Advanced technology has made waterborne coatings superior in performance to solvent-borne coatings. The waterborne coatings from AkzoNobel exceed the highest standards for car repair.
