   I do not spray my finishes so I cannot speak to safety issues concerning them. I do know that lacquer is heavier than air and down low is where your pilot light is on a water heater. I wouldn't put a spray booth anywhere near an open flame source such as you're considering. But that's just me.

   I would contact your fire marshal and gas company on safety precautions and regulations.

   I do spray finishes and absolutely second what Gary said. Lacquer fumes are heavy and will travel to a source of ignition. In your case that ignition source is very close making the space you spoke of impractical and dangerous.

   I don't know if my reply came to you.
