[TheForge] shop walls

You might consider a fire retardant or resistant paint.  Look them up on the
internet, but here is one which I've never used:
http://www.lenderink.com/fire-retardants.htm.  I purchased a different brand
a few years ago and put it on some wood walls, but don't remember the name
of it.  If I remember right it was less than $20 per gallon and could be
painted over if you wanted.  It was available in gallon or 5 gallon
containers.  You could put it on a piece of cardboard and try to light it
with a torch and it would not light.  You could paint it on or spray it on
with a garden sprayer.  It came in clear and white.  There are some real
expensive fire retardant paints on the market and  then there are some that
are less expensive.
