Believe me - a paint booth is the way to go! If I had my choice, I wouldn't hesitate to use that over putting something on my face! The paint booth I was describing is only for spraying things you don't want to get dust, dirt, etc. in. It's just a cheap temporary alternative to buying something to use all the time. I'd only wear a respirator for that, since it doesn't allow for ventilation. It would do for spraying a smooth finish over something until the paint dries enough to hang dry in a shed, or garage.
On the soldering iron thing - why does it ALWAYS have to fume towards your face, and right into your eyes?!! Been there - done that! Even if I was outside it would blow right into my face as if it had radar!
I just don't get it....
That booth is rocking, and I just wish I had somewhere to put something like it, but I don't have a garage, or a basement.
This makes my life a lot more difficult than you guys realise. I need a new home - this one's too small! I have a card table that I work on -other than working in my friends' garage, but that's just not feasable. This only adds to the dreariness of my work situation. It's also why I can't become motivated to get anything done. I'll figure it out later. Just keep rocking on with the paint booth, and show us what you've been doing with it. I'll definately be watching even if I don't leave any more comments - I need the inspiration.
