Is your floor checkered?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

No, our floor is not checkered. It’s not our floor. Our studio doesn’t come with a floor.

We do recommend this floor, and it does give the appearance of checkered, but it’s not our floor. We buy it for you and install it for you and strongly recommend, for the maintenance value of everything falling through. Also, look at the pearlescence and see how nice the gray is. It’s very important that your flooring does not reflect a different color back into the room.

So, to answer your question, our floor is not checkered; it’s just the shadow effect the flooring has.

 

Is there a manual on how to care for my booth?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Is there a manual for care for 360Booth? No. We are putting together strong videos to answer all of your questions and hope to have an electronic format where you can view these videos.

Honestly? As long as you wipe down the floor three days a week, there is no oil; there is no grease; there is no daily maintenance; there is no computer; there is nothing that needs daily maintenance. Maybe you can clean down the walls with a clean microfiber cloth and some water. For stubborn stains, I would use rubbing alcohol.

I hope that answers your question. Of course, call, email, text, and we’ll give you all the details on care for the studio.
 

 

I don’t need flooring. Why should I go with yours?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

You do not need to go with our flooring. It’s strictly a recommendation in providing a low-maintenance solution for stores that don’t know what they’re doing. If you want to do epoxy, I personally love epoxy. Just know going in to use a floor that is a white or gray, or something that doesn’t reflect pigment or color back into your room.

We recommend Swisstrax strictly for a low-maintenance option. You don’t need our floor. In fact, it’s not even our floor. We buy it from another company and install it for you just to be a complete, all-inclusive solution.
 

 

I don't have space inside my dealership can I put it in an outdoor tent?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Jay, I don’t have the space. I looked at your spec. I don’t have the space anywhere in my dealership. What can you do? Can I put it in an event tent or an outdoor tent?

Once again, if you haven’t heard, I visit everyone’s space. Let me visit your space. Let me walk your dealership. Let me make some recommendations before you go to tents or outdoor buildings.

But, to answer your question, “can you put it in a tent?” We have them in tents, but they are ruggedized. If you’re up north, a tent–no way–is going to support the weight of six, eight, or nine inches of snow. If you’re in Florida, Louisiana, the coast of Texas, I wouldn’t put a tent where a hurricane wind at 50 mph or higher would blow it down.

To answer your question, “Can you put it in a tent?” Yes. Let me walk your space first, and then let me give the specs to your tent company.

 

Can you build a booth that is larger or smaller than the three standard sizes?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Your question is a great one, and I’d love to be involved in any new and fresh ideas in and outside of the auto industry as far as building bigger or smaller studios.

Your question is, “Jay, I’ve seen your spec. You have a 24, a 26, a 28. I heard you built a 30, 35,…” and you’re 100% correct. I’ve even built 31’s. I’ve built them smaller–24, 17–for industries out of the car business. Motorcycle, for instance.

To answer your question, absolutely. I would love to be involved in the next latest and greatest ideas as far as photo studios, whether it be in or out of the auto industry.

 

Does 360Booth use softbox lighting?

by | Oct 21, 2022 | FAQs

Let’s talk about professional photography. There are tons of guys out there claiming to be professional photographers. That’s great news. All of them want to turn our cloth top into a softbox. They’re over-engineering it.

I’m not a fan of the softbox. One, you don’t have a trained photographer to shoot in that environment. Two, it’s a very filtered light and makes your cars look fake. That’s the worst thing you can do in an environment–to let your customers think they’re using a file photo. Our solution has very bright, very cool LED lights–cool in temperature. We have a domed, engineered diffuser over the top of them that filter out the light so that it doesn’t create shadows. It doesn’t create a softbox environment.

Can you turn this into a softbox? Hey, it’s your studio. Do as you may. Would I recommend it? No.
