Practices for Auto Body Shops
A Guide for Auto Body Shop Owners and Operators
April 2011
Introduction
The purpose of this brochure is to provide design guidelines and best management practices
(BMPs) relating to auto body shops in National City. This brochure is intended to support the City's
effort to improve the environmental performance of auto body shops in the City, and in turn,
eliminate to the extent possible, impacts currently created by auto body operations throughout
National City by providing owners and operators of auto body shops general design guidelines and
BMPs. When both the design guidelines and BMPs are exercised for auto body shops, maximum
benefits to worker safety, public health and the environment can be achieved. Auto body shop
owners and operators are encouraged to review the general design guidelines and BMPs
presented here for incorporation into their auto body business operations. These guidelines are
intended to operate in conjunction with existing Municipal Code requirements.
References for further information on each topic are also provided. In some cases, specific
regulatory requirements may apply. In these cases, applicable regulations are also provided in
the references.
General Design Guidelines and Best Management Practices for
New Construction of Auto Body Shops
Design guidelines and BMPs are most effective when jointly coordinated. Design guidelines provide
the physical facility to support effective and efficient protection of health safety and the environment
while well -executed BMPs provide the mechanism to achieve and maintain protection of health
safety and the environment during the operation of the auto body shop. It is arguable that an auto
body shop that is a high performance and state-of-the-art facility without BMPs will underperform an
auto body shop without a high performance facility, but with well -established BMPs. This brochure
introduces a series of design guidelines and BMPs related to auto body shops. It is recommended
that for new construction of auto body shops these design guidelines and BMPs be jointly
implemented.
New Construction Compared to Reusing Buildings or Retrofitting an Existing Auto Body Shop
The design guidelines proposed in this brochure are intended for new construction of auto body shops BUT do not
exclude their application to the reuse of an existing building for an auto body shop or the retrofitting of an existing
auto body shop. It should be noted that reusing a building or retrofitting an existing auto -body shop may add more
challenges, but overall is considered a more sustainable option when factoring in the life cycle costs of the materials
both in the deconstruction and construction of a new.facility.,
The BMPs proposed in this brochure are a

Design Guidelines for New Construction
1. Office and customer accessible areas
• Offices and customer areas should have sufficient barriers (e.g., walls, doorways) from
the auto body workplace areas and separate ventilation systems to minimize potential
exposures by office workers and customers to hazardous materials and equipment that
may pose a health or safety risk.
• Daylight measures with lighting controls and thermostats to control HVAC systems
should be installed for office and customer areas, as well as in the workplace areas.

2. Paint spray booth designs
• Install and operate filter technology on all spray booths to achieve at least 98% capture
efficiency.
• Spray booths used for refinishing vehicles AND coating miscellaneous parts should be
fully enclosed and ventilated at negative pressure or up to 0.05 inches water gauge
positive pressure for booths that have seals on all doors and other openings and an
automatic pressure balancing system.
• All spray booths should have downdraft ventilation systems and be physically separated
from mixing rooms.

3. Hazardous waste storage areas
• Storage areas for hazardous wastes should be enclosed and/or separate secured areas
within an auto body shop.
• All storage areas should have sufficient capacity for the maximum storage time for the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) category for the individual auto body
shop.
• Storage areas should be designed to contain a spill or release of hazardous waste.
• Flammable and combustible materials should be kept away from property lines to assure
better control and monitoring over the waste materials. This provides greater protection
for neighboring facilities from exposure and potential fires.

4. Mixing rooms and storage rooms for hazardous materials (inventory)
• A well -designed ventilation system in a separate mixing room will vent harmful vapors and
significantly improve air quality in the mixing room.
• Since this has the potential to be used more frequently than the storage room, a separate
room for mixing is recommended. Having a separate storage room has the advantage of
providing better inventory controls and tracking.
References
1 2010 California Fire Code
2. EPA Design for the Environment
5. Ventilation
• All enclosed spaces should be continuously ventilated during occupied hours with outdoor
air using either natural or mechanical ventilation.
• Spaces where occupancy will be brief and intermittent (e.g., storage rooms), and that do
not have any unusual sources of air contaminants, do not need to be directly ventilated.
• High -Velocity Low -Volume orbital vacuum sanding systems, either central or portable
should be installed to improve ventilation.
• Paint mixing rooms should use both local and general exhaust ventilation systems in
combination.
4
There are two basic types of ventilation: general exhaust ventilation and local exhaust
ventilation. General exhaust ventilation systems typically consist of an exhaust fan, mounted in
the ceiling or wall that pulls air out of the workroom and discharges it outdoors. Replacement air
is brought into the work area by either natural means, such as windows and vents, or by a
mechanical system that includes a separate make-up air fan, duct work and air registers that
provide clean air to the work space. Local exhaust ventilation systems, on the other hand,

remove chemicals and other contaminants at their source. Local systems are recommended for
controlling hazardous vapors because, if designed properly, they remove the vapors before
workers are exposed to them. All local exhaust ventilation systems need to have three basic
components: a hood, ductwork and a fan.

6. Floor drains and water pollution control
• The use of floor drains should be minimized in favor of low volume or non -liquid floor
cleaning methods.
• Where floor drains are needed, floor drains should have separators and holding areas in
order to capture potentially hazardous wastes and allow the facility to properly dispose of
the waste, if necessary, before it is discharged.
• Floor drains cannot connect to any stormwater system and cannot connect to any sanitary
sewer systems near any spray booth areas, hazardous material storage areas (e.g., mixing
rooms), or hazardous waste storage areas, in order to remove the possibility of excess
paint or other hazardous liquids from discharging in to a stormwater or sanitary sewer
system.
• Floors should be sealed with epoxy or suitable sealant to improve spill cleanups.
• A wastewater recycling system is an excellent design measure that improves
environmental and economic benefits by supplying recycled water to car washing
operations and other operations instead of using City water.

7. Site Layout
• Auto body shops should be located a least 500 feet away from schools or residential areas.
• The area in front of the bay doors should not allow more than four cars to be queued in front
of bay doors.
• Auto loading/unloading areas should be located behind buildings to assist in traffic and
parking circulation.
Reference
National City Land Use Code
8. Parking
• Parking should be provided at an appropriate allocation amount with easily accessible parking
for customers and employees.
• All parking for employees should be located behind buildings.
• It is best if driveways and entrances are wide enough to prevent trucks from reversing into
public rights -of -ways and allow maneuvering on the property for better traffic circulation.
Reference
National City Land Use Code
9. Vehicle storage
• A time limit on vehicle storage should be enforced to ensure that vehicles awaiting repair
are not kept onsite for extended periods, which helps control the amount of space
dedicated to vehicle storage.
• A minimum amount of storage should be provided to require facilities to create a
dedicated area for storage and not rely on using onsite parking areas or storing vehicles
on the street. A maximum storage area avoids large and hard -to -maintain storage areas.
Vehicles awaiting repair should be stored in the storage area, not in parking or other
open areas.
10. Building access
• Buildings should be oriented in such a way that customers can enter the facility without
crossing or interfering with repaired vehicles.
• Employees should have the same building access but from the rear of the building when
possible.

11. Fire safety and access
• All auto body shops should have a minimum of two access locations suitable for the
access of fire fighting vehicles.
• Hazardous material and hazardous waste storage areas should be identified and be
easily accessible.
The primary source for fire safety, the California Fire Code, provides an option for a Hazardous
Materials Management Plan (HMMP) where required by the fire official. It is recommended that a
HMMP or similar plan be considered for an auto body shop and include the following:
• Storage and use areas
• Maximum amount of each material stored or used in each area
• Range of container sizes
• Locations of emergency isolation and mitigation valves and devices
• Product conveying piping containing liquids or gases, other than utility -owned fuel gas
lines and low-pressure fuel gas lines
• On and off positions of valves for valves that are of the self -indicating type
• Storage plan showing the intended storage arrangement, including the location and
dimensions of aisles
• The location and type of emergency equipment

12.Fencing and security measures
• All vehicle storage areas should be screened in order to regulate the appearance and
avoid unsightly parking Tots of vehicles awaiting repair.
• Fencing or screening should be solid and decorative and no more than eight feet in
height, except at the front property line, where it should be no more than six feet in
height.
• Screening vehicle storage areas is a simple and easy way to regulate the appearance
and avoid unsightly parking lots of vehicles awaiting repair. Mandating a type and height
of fencing or screening ensures that the fencing acts as a screen from the surrounding
neighborhood, without becoming a visual distraction.

Best Management Practices
1. Low -Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) paint
• Low VOC paint products should be used.
• The use of low VOC content paints reduces the amount of VOCs that may be released
into the air during spraying.
References
San Diego County Rule 67.20.provides•guidance on the appropriate VOC ,-ciipint for various
processes (e.g..,pretreatment coating, primer).
2. Spray gun cleaning
The City of National City promotes the use of aqueous cleaners for paint spray gun cleaning
applications. However, if solvent cleaners are used the following guidelines apply:
• Extend the effective life of the cleaning solvent with two -stage cleaning. Spray gun
equipment should be rinsed first with used solvent (if a waterborne product is not used)
and then cleaned with clean solvent.
• Paint guns should be cleaned with enclosed automatic paint gun washing equipment.
• Disposable paint cup liners should be used as well as alternative gun cleaning
technology.

3. High Volume Low Pressure spray guns
• Employees should be properly trained for the use of HVLP spray guns.
• The Spray Technique Analysis and Research (STAR) program at the Iowa Waste
Reduction Center has the most thorough training which teaches its students the proper
paint mixture content, spray equipment type, spray equipment maintenance and spray
technique (including pressures settings, spray distance and spray angle).

4. Solvent recycling
The City of National City promotes the use of aqueous cleaners for paint spray gun cleaning
applications. However, if solvent cleaners are used the following guidelines apply:
• On -site recycling should be implemented. However, this may not be an option if the
reclaimed solvent has a higher VOC content than is allowed for paint gun cleaning
(California Department of Toxic Substances Control, 2006b).
• If solvent is recycled on -site, the reclaimed solvent should be used only for paint spray
gun cleaning.

5. Sanding process and High Velocity Low Volume sanding systems
• Dry sanding should be considered over wet sanding because it does not introduce a
new waste stream.
• A High -Velocity Low -Volume (HVLV) system should be provided.
• A vacuum sanding unit with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration should
be used.
9
11
Design Guidelines and Best Management Practices for Auto Body Shoff
• HVLV orbital vacuum sanding systems can protect workers and others nearby from
harmful dust. A HVLV sanding system uses industrial vacuum cleaners to trap sanding
dust before it becomes airborne and has a compressed air driven sanding disc that is
perforated with a series of holes.
• Washing of dust collection systems should not be done in such a way that it collects in
stormwater drains.
Reference
EPA Design for the Environment
6. Hazardous waste generation and disposal
• Hazardous waste should be handled and disposed of in accordance with the applicable
RCRA and California requirements.
• There should be a separation of waste streams with clear labels. Maintaining separation
of recyclable wastes (e.g., used oil, solvents) can avoid the creation of hazardous waste.
Many fluids can be recycled or reclaimed, but mixing can render the fluids non -
recyclable and create hazardous waste.
• Containers should be in good condition and compatible with the material they are
holding. Each container should remain closed except when adding or subtracting
wastes. Containers should be clearly labeled with the following:
✓ The date hazardous wastes began accumulating in that container
✓ The lettering, "Hazardous Waste" visible on the outside of the container
✓ The composition and physical state (solid or liquid) of the waste
✓ The hazardous properties of the waste (toxic, ignitable, corrosive, reactive)
✓ The name and address of the generator
• Reusable cloth rags and towels should be used at permitted facilities to reduce trash
volume and possibly ihcreased hazardous waste generation. Used rags or towels that
are contaminated with automotive fluids or gasoline may be considered hazardous
materials.
• To the extent practical, reusable cloth rags and towels should be used and laundered at
an appropriate laundry facility. Rags and towels that are to be disposed should be stored
in an appropriate, marked container and disposed of at an approved permitted facility
that can handle these materials.

7. Pollution prevention
Pollution prevention refers to activities that reduce the amount of pollution generated by a
process such as the handling, use and disposal of hazardous materials. Pollution prevention
should include the most basic steps first, such as:
• Improving inventory control
• Reducing the amount of products in storage
• Using first -in, first -out for paint and materials
• Inventorying storage areas regularly
• Keeping containers closed and inspecting for leaks
• Using good housekeeping practices

8. Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP)
A Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) should be implemented for each auto body
shop. A SWPPP provides a systematic approach to preventing contamination of the stormwater
system. SWPPP requirements can be found in Chapter 14.22 of the National City Municipal
Code.

Sanding waste, especially with wet sanding, may contain toxic metals that can contaminate
surface waters.

13
Design Guidelines and Best Management Practices for Auto Body Shoi
• This waste should not be washed to gutters, streets, or storm drains whether or not it is
hazardous waste.
• With wet sanding, minimal water would be used and then collected before entering the
sanitary sewer when possible. Also the wash water should be collected in a clarifier
before discharging to the sanitary sewer.
• The clarifier should be inspected and serviced regularly.
• A vacuum sanding unit can also minimize the uncontrolled discharge of sanding waste
during dry sanding operations.

10. Wastewater and storm drains
In general:
• Waste water from wash areas should flow AWAY from storm drains.
• Cars should be washed in a bermed and covered wash area.
• A contained wash pad should be installed prior to the sanitary sewer. If a permanent
wash pad cannot be installed, a portable wash pad should be used with a pumping
system to the sanitary sewer drain.
• A closed loop water recycling system should be installed to reduce water use and trap
contaminants.

11. General environmental regulation and compliance
All businesses should determine applicable regulatory requirements, appropriate compliance
options and permitting requirements.
• If operations where usage exceeds 20 gallons or 150 pounds of VOC emissions per
consecutive 12-month period, then the businesses must follow San Diego County Rule
67.20, Motor Vehicle and Mobile Equipment Refinishing Operations.
• An Integrated Maintenance and Operational Plan (iMOP) should also be considered.
This plan would outline the types of equipment and maintenance procedures used at the
facilities and integrate environmental and occupational sectors. The plan would be
maintained and provided upon request, but not required for submittal to the City.

12. Waterborne coatings and paints
• Waterborne coatings and paints are considered less toxic and have lower VOC levels
compared to solvent -borne products. It is possible to use less product with waterborne
coatings and paints when compared to solvent -based products. This can lead to an
immediate cost savings.
• Waterborne products may have a shelf life between 24 and 60 months. In some cases,
waterborne products may have an advantage over solvent -borne products, such as with
the use of waterborne primer where solvent primer would react with existing substrate
materials or coatings.
• There is a concern about added drying times with waterborne coatings. This can be
easily addressed with the proper air movement in a spray booth. Depending on the
booth cycles per day, there are different methods to improve air movement in a booth,
which will improve drying times.

13.Inventory control practices
An inventory control practice reduces costs and potential hazards, such as a spill or fire.
• It is essential to minimize inventory and purchase only what is needed. The first -in, first -
out principle is also important to ensure that the older materials are used first.
• All materials should to be stored to maintain proper temperature, humidity and to reduce
material degradation.
• Inventory limits should not exceed emergency response capacity.
• It is recommended that shops minimize the use of similar solvents and use waste
exchange programs.
• Excess materials that are not needed at one auto body shop can be of value to another
auto body shop which may have a use for that material. If a network of auto body shops
can be identified and created, an exchange program can be developed to exchange
excess materials. This can help transfer valuable materials to facilities that may need
these materials rather than disposing of the excess materials as a waste. In addition, the
network could include local or regional vocational or technical schools that would benefit
from excess materials that would have otherwise been wasted.

14. Personal protection equipment
As mentioned earlier:
• Cal/OSHA requires California employers to have a written Injury and Illness Prevention
(IIP) Program and Respiratory Protection Program (RPP) for its employees.
• Auto body shops should have an IIP and RPP to ensure health and safety in the
workplace. These programs address such measures as worker evaluation, selection of
appropriate air -purifying or supplied -air respirators, fit -testing, training and maintenance.
This includes wearing goggles or face shields when operating sanding or grinding
equipment, installing dust collectors on sanders and grinders and installing splash
guards on grinders that use coolants.
• Also it is essential to have safety guards on any mechanical equipment as well as
always wearing the appropriate clothing (e.g., no loose clothing).
• Employers need to enforce these practices with employees and provide periodic training
that is culturally respective and effective.

15. Training
• Training should be provided for all employees of auto body shops.
• Training needs may vary for different job functions such as painters.
• Training can include in-house training performed by management or equipment and
material suppliers or external training using local technical schools and manufacturer
training programs. Currently in San Diego there are two small colleges that have
established training programs for auto body shops. The Cuyamaca College in El Cahon
and the Southwestern College in Chula Vista both have training programs intended for
auto body shop employees

16. Recordkeeping
Recordkeeping can play an important role in evaluating an auto body shop's operating practices.
Records should be maintained for the following:
• Hazardous material inventories including paints, solvents, and other chemicals
• Volumes and types of hazardous wastes generated
• Volumes and disposition of hazardous wastes disposed of or recycled
• Annual usage of paint strippers containing McCI
