They are cheap and effective for protecting your tool boxes, "toys"(Atv's, bicycles, Motorcycles, etc.) from overspray. | One way to turn your garage into a temporary paint booth is to get huge plastic dropclothes from you local hardware store or home improvement store.

− | Open up your garage door about 1/8 to a 1/4 way up, this will help with ventilation, since solvents sink. Place a fan near the opening, facing outside, to help even more with airflow. Opening any side doors and roof vents helps lots too, Place another fan around here. (old box fans work best) Box fans can be found cheaply at second-hand stores. | + | Open up your garage door about 1/8 to a 1/4 way up, this will help with ventilation, since solvents sink.
