How much do studios charge per hour anyway? what is a standard rate for you to use the studio? What sort of equipment do you have access to/what does this standard rate include?

i have seen everything from $100 a day to $2500 a day..

i rent my studio out for $35 an hour including equipment...

Well, that should be no problem for the OP because he is paying models 1500$ for a bodypainting shoot....

i live in huntington park and time after time i need in a studio to shoot my models. personally studio's at to much for just a hr of the time when i feel the model her self should get it. but am looking for a number of ideas. i need a swimwing pool with a water fall will be great but not needed. pooltable, and JACUZZI. also a studio to use any 1 now of any please have me know willing to drive to a lot of places in order to use it. just the cost for the use is the question.

don't you have a friend who has a pool?  seems like everyone has a hot tub in CA.  I don't know about water fall, maybe you can have your models lie next to a van and have water running off of it.
