The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Paint and Body Shop Sprayed interior...hvlp?

I sprayed the interior of my 59 Fleetside a few days ago....finally committed to a color:2tone, Omaha Orange over bombay ivory. not original, but at least they are 59 colors. It looks pretty good, considering it was my first time using a spray gun. I would post pic, but I don't have any yet.
I was amazed at how much overspray filled the air! I sprayed outside in my yard, and there was a huge cloud of the stuff that just went all over. I guess I kind of knew it would, but I just wanted to get it done. I'm surprised the nieghbors didn't complain.
I am planning on painting the whol truck, where it sits (before I put the engine in). I'm considering a few things so I don't fill the air with ground level ozone and VOC. First, I might get one of those temporary garages and put it up around the truck and set up some sort of ventilation.
Next, I think I'll get an HVLP gun.
With the HVLP, is there noticable overspray? I mean, like a mist in the air as with my conventional gun? Could I spray outside and not be too guilty of polluting and [censored] off the nieghbors when the get in their car and there winshield has a fine Omaha Orange mist settled on it? I'll probably do the garage thing anyway, for dust control.
also, anybody have any ideas about ventilating the garage? I've heard house fans spark, and that's a bad thing around fumin' paints and such.
Thanks, folks!

I used a turbine HVLP and still had overspray.

I used postive pressure in my garage that way fumes did not go through the fans.

If you use negative pressure not ony fumes go through the fans dust also gets pulled in.

If you are using urethane be sure to use supplied air mask.

Good luck

MartinSr will probably have a lot more info but here's what I know/do. I paint stuff like interiors and small parts with a touch-up gun. It shoots out a lot less paint but does a very good job. What air pressure are you using? What you use will be dependent on your gun and paint type. Too much air pressure means excessive atomization which wastes paint and may produce a poor quality paint job. HVLP...high volume, low pressure. The low pressure is at the tip of the gun. The theory from what I know is that the paint velocity is lower from the tip, resulting in more paint sticking to the surface instead of blowing around. Overspray is reduced but doesn't go away completely.
