I just finished my paint booth mod.New cabinet and added a 2nd inline fan.Works great.I do not think I will blow up since the motor windings are shellac covered.All the same I will use primer paint outside weather permitting. photo DSCN2015_zpsc4ddbeee.jpg

They do make those fans with explosion proof motors , but are more expensive .

quiet enough that I forget to turn it off when I wander off The second fan down below the elbow made a huge difference, only set me back 35 bucks.Now I just need to paint the room, the only room still not remodeled,yikes...how ugly. Used to be the previous owners baby room.
