                        I am thinking of making a spray booth(proberly workout more expensive!)so i can get it to fit in a storage cupboard.I can vent it out of a nearby window using a flexi tube.

                        I have read and seen people using PC 12v fans but i would like to use the proper sealed items.BUT i have done a search and can not find the correct ones in the UK.

                        Can anyone point me in the right direction for a supplier.

                        Same problem I had mate. 'Squirrel cage blowers' 'Shaded pole' they just don't seem to exist in the UK. I got lucky found a Simair booth 2nd hand. (which are not worth the money they cost new!!!)

                        I mean these motors are uses in lots of things but why is no one selling them in the UK?

                        Squirrel cage blowers are more properly called centrifugal fans (at least here in the U.S.). 

                        I just googled "centrifugal fans UK suppliers" and got quite a few hits.  You might try it and see if you get any good results.
