There are effective indoor filtration system like the Artograph that Mike pointed out. Reviews have shown that the multiple layer carbon system is effective, BUT at a high cost. The pre-filter sheets and replacement filters are NOT cheap. There is a controvercy on this forum on how long the consumables last before needing replacement. Look up Artograph for more info. I don't have one to know who is right.

Other cheap system using a filmsy fan and a single household air filter sheet is likely to be totally ineffective.

That one looks interesting. Be sure and post your thoughts about it if you get one.

I had a similar unit to Mike's before I claimed my man cave area and punched a hole through the wall. Ah, the benefits of home ownership!

Worked great, while I had it. The yellow hose was connected to my "garage" compressor, so it was even quiet.

Nick,

Can you find a window and build a board to fit in the open window as I did here? 

I take out the screen, put the board with the exhaust flap on the outside, connect the exhaust hose to the paint booth, paint, and when you are done you remove the board from the window, close the window and you are done. No holes in the walls of the house necessary!
