Why don't you just section off a part of the garage with a tarp attached to the ceiling of your garage and use that as a booth when spraying? That's what I do and it works a treat wink.gif

I also use a few bungees hung from the ceiling to keep it rolled up and tucked away when not being used-2 mins and you've got the full use of your garage again.

What do you use for ventilation r0dd? Does the tarp keep all the overspray from flying around and coating everything else in the garage?

I've got a variable speed industrial extractor setup that I got from a mate whose business was relocating. It's not a filtered/explosion proof one but it shifts a lot of air and does the trick. Probably not recommended but does me.

My garage has wooden rafters so I just stapled the tarp to the rafters and run a couple of lengths of wood down the sides to prevent most of the overspray. Any overspray dust is easily kept at bay with a couple of old sheets or similar.

I also got one of these cheap metal sheds (around a ton) for keeping garden furniture, mower etc in-keeps the missus happy wink.gif
