I'm setting up a box to contain the fumes from my resin printer, and I know that wood isn't the best material for this, but it's what I have available. I'm considering using either bed liner or Plasti Dip to coat the inside of the box for better fume containment. Has anyone tried something similar or has advice on what might work best? Just so you know, I'm using an old dryer duct and a greenhouse fan vented to a window, along with a solar-powered fan for airflow.

Have you thought about just buying a dedicated 3D printing enclosure? There are plenty available for less than $300 if you look around. Sometimes they’re even better suited for what you need than DIY solutions.
I totally get that buying a ready-made enclosure can be expensive! If you're keen on a DIY solution, definitely go with the Plasti Dip as it’s more durable than bed liner and provides a good seal. Just make sure to apply it evenly for the best results.
