I have been involved with a few paint jobs done in a garage. We took sheets of plastic and put a 2x4 at the top of the sheet, then nailed it to the ceiling. It created a perfect paint booth and meant everything else in the garage was protected. The plastic was held down at the bottom by another 2x4. Wet the floor down with a garden hose to keep the dust down. Bunny suit and a full respirator. Pick a calm day and you push the vehicle outside to let the paint flash off outdoors. Then push it inside for another coat. We have done a few race vehicles and one of my old daily drivers this way. Except for a few runs that involved a lack of skill they came out great. We used Dupont Prothane? a urethane for a few. Then again, they weren't Porsches.
