Either AB inside a large box with three sides and a bottom, or make a LARGE dropcloth area - you will get paint more places than you would think if you don't (but it also comes up easily - I left a giant shadow grey line on my carpet the other day, came right out with pet cleaner.)

The only time I spray out of the window is when I blowing AB cleaner through the brush.

I had created a little paint box, with a cardboard box lined with newspaper... but I found it unnecessary after a while.

That said if you are using oils or enamels I would recommend NOT doing it indoors... though I just finished watching an AB tutorial DVD (Geoff Illsley) and he swears it's ok to paint with oils indoors as well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1583343.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1583343.page GMT
The fumes aren't harmful but you don't want to be breathing the particulates into your lungs. You can get a filtration mask for around $30 US that'll also protect you in case you want to switch to urethanes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584389.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584389.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584487.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584487.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584527.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584527.page GMT
I cut up one of the 3$ filters for my air conditioner so it fit inside the box- that keeps the paint out of the fan and diffuses the air flow.

DO NOT use a cheapo fan if you use enamel paints!!! The motor sparks could ignite the fumes. But tis safe with acrylics.

I only use the little booth for when Im base coating stuff and pushing alot of paint.

When doing detail work the air pressure and paint flow are dialed down so far very little is coming out so theres no overspray.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584561.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/295489/1584561.page GMT
