You could do it yourself. You would need a lot of stuff though. You will need a garage to do it in though, you'll need to put up plastic on the walls and ceiling and keep the ground wet.. It would take a long time to dry though. =/

You keep the ground wet because dust will fly up into the air whenever you walk around and paint it. You want all the dust to settle and be on the ground.
I painted my car myself as well. Though I rented a booth as it was only 100$ to do so.
Heres a pic on how it turned out. Not bad for a 400$ paintjob! :D

i'm guessing if dust or crap were to come in and when it settled, it'll stick to the water instead of flying back up?
*edit; nevermind...question already answered!
