Anyone shoot waterborne at home?

I have worked quite a lot, and still do with PPG Envirobase. I have sprayed it outside the paint booth for small stuff. What I can say about it, it takes much longer to flash without the air flow of the paint booth. Also you need a air diffuser to flash it off, so using it to flash it off, outside a paint booth with bad air quality just sends contaminants straight onto it. Without the diffuser, it will eventually flash off by itself, but it takes forever compared to solvent borne paint. I personally don't use the waterbased unless I really have to, such cases are when I have to paint only a bumper cover and need the best match possible.

What kind of a job do you have to do with it, and have you already purchased the paint?

I forgot to mention, if it a humid day, flash off takes even longer, and denibbing is not as easy as the solvent borne basecoat, it has a certain gummy feel to it.
