Just played around some when I was a kid working in a body shop. Boss wouldn't let ANYTHING like that happen at the shop but I painted anything I could, anywhere I could after work. Mostly for free and for friends. Did a van in a wood shed. A VW and some dirt bikes in an airport hanger. A 1967 Pontiac 2+2 in a dairy. Best one was a red 67 442 that every time I poured another cup full of paint in my old Binks#7, I washed the overspray out of the lungs with a couple of Budweisers.
Time I got through with that one, I wasn't standing too straight. The overspray was so bad a friend of mine was leading with a drop light just so I could see the car! Figured the next morning I would have to cut it loose from the floor from all the paint running off of it.
Next morning we rolled it out into the sun and it would hurt your eyes. So slick my fingertips would squeek when I drug them across the surface.
NEVER got one that slick again. Dupont Centauri. Newest thing on the market......a long time ago!
