tuffluck- IMO it`s one of those "if you even think about whether it`s a good idea, just do it" things. But hey, I can be awfully extreme about the whole marring issue. I`d at least plan on doing a QDing with the ONR, using a light-colored MF, on the horizontal surfaces. That`d be *after* doing a Dark Environment Inspection using Point-Source Illumination; if you can see [stuff] on the paint, then you know the answer
But sometimes you gotta really work at it to see that....and if in doubt, just do it.
EDIT: FWIW, even when the overhead doors stay down, and I`m quick in/out of the man-door, and even though my shop is pretty well-sealed and clean (no, I`m not running Air Cleaners all the time as I once did), I`d put in a fair bit of work inspecting if one of mine sat overnight uncovered.
FWIW#2, I often lay towels on the horizontal surfaces if I`ll be touching the paint the next day. IIRC, Mike Phillips uses sheets/blankets, just be sure that any "wonderfully soft cotton!" really *IS* gentle enough..most would be amazed how easy it is to mar paint with it.
