I work at a Naval Ship Yard. I am a lead and asbestos worker.
ASSUME lead is in EVERYTHING until proven otherwise.
NO paint, bondo, steel, or fumes, dusts have anything in them that's GOOD for you. Nowhere will you read on a lable to just add some BBQ sauce for a real treat; so act accordingly.
Lead is HEAVY so it doesn't float around like Bondo, paint, etc dusts.
Blowing out the garage isn't the thing you want to do; it's not a good idea. Go get a HEPA filtered vaccum cleaner, Wal-Mart has them, VACUUM up the dust immediatly! NO BLOWING dust around, no sweeping, just vacuum, you can sweep directly INTO the hose on the vacuum, when its on and running of course.
Use HEPA filters on your respirator. See your respirator vendor for these filters.
