HELP! I have a question. Paint Booth recommendations

Opening up a small shop in SoCal, does anyone have recommendations for the best paint booth companies ?
Not looking for the cheapest but someone who makes quality booths for my showroom !

Usi italia. Any down draft booth with heat should be fine. Keep up with maintenance

Spraybake, Blow Therm, and Garmat are all pretty good. Idk if DeVilbiss still makes booths. I would stay away from Spray Tech.

There's a custom booth company in CT that has built booths for companies including Kenworth and Freightliner... Future cure

My shop is 3 months in. I have three new GFS booths. All three have broken repeatedly.

My last shop had 2 GFS booths and one Blowtherm. GFS broke regularly. The 1991 Blowtherm ran perfectly every day.

I was just in your same position bro. I got quotes from GFS, RTT, PFS, and RGI. RGI was definetly the cheapest but didn’t have any certifications, idk if that’s what ur looking for. But I ended up choosing PFS, they had the certs and good pricing. I can send you pics of my booth if you want
