is the room large, well ventilated? I dont think it will hurt you badly if at all.

Pshh...i like to live dangerously :) If there are windows in the room open them. Its also good if you have a backyard or somethign to go out there and do it. OCers can use the sunshine anyway :0

As long as you are just painting your case and not spraying and sniffing, you are ok. Just do it outside or somewhere you can open windows. Also If you let your stuff dry indoors, make sure that it is not a room you frequent often. It will still smell and still have that wonderfull ability of giving you a head ache. Other than that Spray away my friend and get a tan for goodness sakes :)

Yea, thats not the way to go. I saw this guy huffing paint on cops, it really wasn't pretty.

The first thing you should know is that the fumes (gasses), from the paint will expand to fill any room you're in (and possibly ajoining rooms). Even though you can't smell the fumes anymore, you may still be breathing them in. Definately paint outside if you can. If you have to paint inside, try to do it before you go out for a while, and while no one will be in the house for a while. Reducing your exposure to the fumes is always adviseable.

Yea, thats what i suggested. If its a really nice day, just take the case outside, put it on some newspapers and spray away. Maybe bring the dog out or dump the garbage or something. :)

I dont know, it is something you have to be careful of, but i'm really not too worried about it.

yes, i painted my case in my garage and i only opened the garage a foot and after a while, even though i was wearing a mask, the fumes got to me and i was getting kinda woozy. all good though, i just had some water and sat down for a bit. Just try to ventilate the room as much as possible

The fumes from the solvents hurt your brain, but hey, we all have a litte brain to spare, right?

Anyway, if you work with solvents every day then this is something to worry about. But once in a while doesn't hurt you badly. Just a little dizzy.. Oohhhhoohhhh... WWeeeeeee....
