This mask doesn't seen to let anything through I'm just careful, it's just painting everytjing in my dads garage black he loves it lol NOT!!!

 

[Tinbasherdan]

Should have seen our old chest freezer in the garage, started off White, ended up being a multitude of colours. I thought it improved things, mam not so much

You could always point the fan at a large sheet of cardboard to catch most of the larger particles. In my old workshop I had the extractor fan fixed into a piece of ply that fitted into the open window frame.

anyone else spot the painting in a room in the house?

would we get away with it?

That's a good idea, I'll see if I have a fan anywhere.

It's the garage not the house

A commercial spray booth would use a wet wall to stop nasties escaping. If you had an extractor blowing outside, and arranged a spray / sprinkler for the outside air to pass though you'd be sorted.

Far to complicated lol

 

[colnerov]

That's a brilliant idea! I'll see if I can buy some. Hopefully they fit.
Can't reallt have an extractor as It'd be bad to let the fumes into the environment.

Hi, they are going into the environment anyway, or are you going to keep them locked up in the garage? It's better outside than in your lungs.

I keep it in the garage and the mask filters it all

Stick a couple of layers of your tights over the front as a pre filter Kim, not the fishnets though

Try and roller or brush as much as you can Kim I only ever sprayed the coachwork........outside.
It's going through skin, eyes the lot. There must be some mist in there if filters are blocking..........yuch! Horrible thing spraying, less you are set up like Langy and others........even then, it's not harmless.

True but I really don't want a brush finish, I want it to look really good I'll just try get a fan

just put you a filter like you use for your heating and air in the house on one side of the fan your planning on using

Very few houses here in the UK have aircon or ducted hot air - (which was largely phased out in the 1970's)

 

[pedrobedro]

Take the guts out of a cooker hood, pipe it to a big extractor on the outside and keep an eye on the filter.

 

[fatfranky]

My local hardware shop sells universal Cooker hood material about 1m2 of fleecy cotton wool like material that you cut to size to fit your cooker hood.

Could you possibly use that as a filter to catch some of the nasties before or after your extractor fan

 

[Rig Pig]

If you're going to fit a filter it needs to go in front of the fan to reduce the build up on the fan blades.
