I agree with the sub assemblies painting. I would suggest useing a regular box fan in the window, blowing air out,open another window 3 or 4 inches. If you have a window on another wall , use another fan blowing in, this creates cross ventilation. It should be plenty of flow, the fans are fairly cheap.Also if you want to masking tape the door cracks and roll a towel up at the bottom to seal from the rest of the house. A cardboard box makes a disposable paint booth. If you have to paint outside, be mindful of the temp. The paint will orange peel if it's too cold. Hope this helps out.
