Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lighting Design for a Paint Booth?
A paint booth design lighting layout is a report detailing a paint booth with lights installed, showing foot candle levels at locations within the paint booth. The unique thing about paint booths over other indoor areas is that lights are also mounted on the walls to light up vertical surfaces, such as cars. Vertical light levels are just as important as horizontal light levels for achieving professional paint finishes.

What are the Recommended Lux Levels for a Paint Booth?
The industry standard for a paint booth is between 100 to 150 foot candles (about 1076 to 1614 lux) at 3 feet above floor level. Professional automotive paint booths typically require the higher end of this range for color matching accuracy. We provide free lighting plans for paint booths to ensure the paint booth LED lights we recommend will meet your specific requirements.
What are the Typical Lighting Requirements for a Spray Booth?
Spray booths require very bright lighting so that the painting process can be done professionally. It’s quite common to see light levels in the 60-100 foot candle range for smaller spray booths. Uniform light distribution is critical to avoid shadows that could compromise paint quality.
How Do I Choose the Right LED Lights for a Paint Booth?
The most important first step is to understand what type of spraying you’re doing. If your spray booth process creates explosive paint vapors, then you must use explosion-proof lighting – never substitute vapor-proof lighting. We evaluate your spray booth size, required brightness levels, and specific application to recommend the optimal fixture configuration.
What Type of Lighting Goes in a Paint Booth?
If the vapors produced are explosive, then use explosion-proof lighting rated for Class I Division 1 environments. We offer multiple formats, including ceiling and wall-mounted fixtures, linear fixtures, and compact square/round lights. We can even provide explosion-proof flood lighting for large-sized spray booths requiring wide area coverage.
How Many Paint Booth Fixtures Do You Need?
We never recommend fixture quantities without first understanding your specific requirements. Once we know your booth dimensions, target light levels, and safety classifications, we create a detailed lighting plan. The plan determines the exact number of fixtures needed to meet your lighting requirements.
Do You Provide Free Lighting Plans for Paint Booths?
Yes, we provide complimentary lighting design plans for paint booth projects. Our plans include 3D renderings, foot candle calculations, and fixture placement diagrams showing both horizontal and vertical light levels. This ensures you get the exact lighting performance needed before making your purchase.
What’s the Difference Between Explosion-Proof and Vapor-Proof Lighting?
Explosion-proof fixtures are designed to contain internal explosions and prevent ignition of surrounding vapors, required for Class I hazardous locations. Vapor-proof lighting only prevents vapor ingress but cannot contain explosions. For paint booths with flammable solvents, explosion-proof lighting is mandatory for safety compliance.
How Does a Lighting Plan Help with My Paint Booth Purchase Decision?
A professional lighting plan eliminates guesswork by showing exact light levels at every point in your booth before installation. You’ll see fixture locations, mounting heights, and coverage patterns to ensure uniform lighting. This prevents costly mistakes and ensures your paint booth meets professional quality standards from day one.
