    Heater for painting in shed?

    I have a uninsulated, 200sf building that i do all of my projects in, but airbrushing is impossible in these temps 40° - 50°. What heater do you guys use to keep it warm enough to paint?

    The struggle is real. I'm in the same boat. I use a forced air propane heater. It's loud and gets too hot. I really need to insulate, just keep putting it off.

    I use the buddy dual propane heater in my shed. It works pretty good. I also sectioned of my area with traps to help hold the heat in.

    Looks like propane is the way to go. I have an electric heater but it doesn't do anything.

    This and some insulation should get you good and toasty.
