I was using an old swamp cooler to exhaust my home booth with and it died. Are you guys using something bigger like an old regular big exhaust fan? Any one here have pics of their exhaust systems?

An old Westinghouse wall mount, $15 at a swap meet, works great. Painted at least a dozen vehicles, no problems. Louvers behind it, a sliding plywood door for winter.

Whatever you use, make sure it's pulling vapor out and the motor is sparking like a 4th of july fireworks display.

Mine doesn't spark as much as my friends "sealed" one does. That was a waste of money. This is my third booth in 20 years, and so far I haven't blown the roof off. No obvious sparks, nothing to worry about.
