Getting Your IR Heater Layout Right for Custom Paint Booths

If you’ve ever pulled a car out of a booth only to find the fenders are baking while the rocker panels are still tacky, you know the struggle. That happens when people treat heating walls like a generic appliance. The truth is, a one-size-fits-all layout just doesn’t work. To get that perfect, uniform cure, you have to actually look at the vehicle you’re painting.

Mapping Out the Heat

You can’t just space your lamps evenly and hope for the best. It doesn’t work that way. If you’re mostly working on SUVs or trucks, you’ve got a lot more vertical metal to deal with. In those cases, we pack more lamps into the mid-to-upper sections. But if you’re chasing the perfect finish on a low-slung sports car? You shift that density down. Here’s a pro tip: group your lamps into zones. Instead of one giant switch, wire the wall into separate circuits. That way, if you’re curing a low chassis, you can just kill the power to the top row. No point in heating the ceiling.
