spray booth exhaust ?

Hey Guys first let me say there is some great info here and greatly appreciated.

I am less than a beginner and decided to paint my bike I got a few junk parts read a lot and practiced. My biggest problem is dust so I am trying to build a booth in the garage. I have got some great Ideas here.

What I was thinking of is a bathroom type exhaust fan in the ceiling of the booth with a filter over it, 2 filtered box fans for intake air this should produce a positive pressure enviornment . No one has mentioned exhausting through the top any advice on why this may or may not work before I spend more money would be great.

Thanks

Chuck

Hmm,don't know really.I think the box fans might overpower the bathroom fan by the sounds of it.I think pulling exhaust out the top may suspend more dirt in the air though.I think I'd pull the intake from up high and exhaust low,maybe 3 fans in the top of the wall pushing in and 2 fans at the floor on the opposite wall exhausting the fumes.
