"Hi, I'm Doug, I work with 20 great guys in Saint Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods and we are going to do some work for you on Expert Village. After the car has been completely dried sanded, perfectly the painter goes and he would spin 2 hours with a air hose cleaning, blowing things out inside and out. Getting the car as dust free as possible. It is impossible you know we live in a real world here it is impossible to get things perfectly cleaned. But the more time Tony can stand here before getting in the booth the least junk that is going to get in the paint treatment. You know the car would be dusted really tightly but all it take is one little dirt when you are going with your paint gun and you would have a whole of mess to sand out of the finished paintwork. So I'm not exaggerating he would spend about 2 hours on this car cleaning before it goes in the booth. Both booths are both shut down there is no dust anywhere in them."
