Finishing my car in a container....

[The V8 Files]

Being watertight is exactly the problem, water cant get in and moisture cant get out, if your spending a few hours in there then just by breathing you will be creating a moist environment which could condensate down the cold walls resulting in a damp sealed box.

I didn't mean it as a major risk but it might be beneficial to add a couple of vents in it if possible.

Also investigate the paint Bob mentioned as that could help.

The problem is trying to find a place near where i live that i can make noise and work during weekends and evenings. Its going to cost me £100 a month to rent a 20ft in the same trading estate where i work. One coming up next month so need to find an alternative before then if pos.

The container would probably be fine with a couple of precautions, vents if possible but if its rented then that may not be allowed, keeping the doors open a bit while in there would help but heading into winter is going to be cold and let the noise out, you can also get moisture absorbers, just bags of crystals to help take the moisture out of the air.

if it helps we have 7 or so at work we use to store train parts and spares as store rooms all stay dry rain or shine and nothing goes rusty

I have got six in the yard and they sweat more than a aussie builders armpit
I was thinking of turfing them out and using the paint but they are stacked the the ceiling and its a mammoth undertaking. I reckon your better off seeing a local farmer to rent a shed.

Turfing them out- bit small for a footie pitch though :-)
