So I was spray painting some tail light lenses red tonight, about 15 feet from my 2013 BRZ in the garage, the garage door was open, looked like most of the fumes and "dust" were going out the garage, and even had a fan on to keep the dust out of the garage.
When I go out to start on the third coat, I noticed a light reddish dust on the floor of the garage, and then looked over and under the fluorescent light over my car, I could see a very very light reddish tint dust.
The red dust from the spray paint on the floor came right up by just hosing it down, and washed out. I then took the BRZ outside and did a full wash, and with just the initial rinse I saw the red dust come off, but washed it completely anyways just to be safe.
Took it back in the garage under the fluorescent and halogen, and saw no trace of the red dust whatsoever. Used a QD on the paint, came off clear. I also clayed a small area of the car and the clay was clean; no red at all.
The car was waxed and clayed about a week ago.
From what I saw, the spray paint dust looked harmless, and rinsed right off both the car and garage floor surface, but I would like your opinions. Do you think anything else needs to be done to make sure there are no contaminants left?
