its a frame, nobody cares about a little dust.

also, wetting the floor is a myth. it really doesnt do ---- for dust control. i have painted cars outside on a dry day that came out better than cars in a decent booth with a wet floor. its all in how the moons align that day or you use a downdraft spray booth. thats the only sure fire way to get clean paint.
