It'll stink for sure. I built a wood frame with a plywod top and 
attached three furnace filters to three open sides. On the fourth side I 
mounted a 20" window fan so it blew out. Slide this under the garage 
door and close the door onto the plywood top so the fan is just outside 
the door. Block the rest of the space on either side of the fan box with 
cardboard. Open a window in the garage to makeup the air and it should 
keep most of it outside for you. Use 10ft wide roll of plastic sheeting 
to close off the wall of the garage on the house side and that should 
help too. An HVLP spray gun helps alot too, more paint ont he car, less 
on the floor and in the air.
