Haha, well it's definitely an experiment. I'll try to control the variables that I can (sealing, ventilation, cleanliness, applying what I'm learning about painting etc) and those which I can't (skill, experience), I'll just have to hope for the best. LOL!

A trick i heard about with painting in a non ideal space is to get it really warm and then spill a few gallons of water on the floor to make it humid to try and drag some of the dust out of the air.

Interesting. I've definitely heard of wetting the floor to keep the dust down.
