Explosion-proof fans on Amazon - can they be trusted?

Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but if you accidentally blow up your house because you didn't want to spend the money on a proper and safe fan, your homeowners insurance isn't going to cover it.

This ^^^ is my second concern, the first is NOT getting my wife hurt since she is the one who will be spraying all the products. I am visually impaired and she has eyes like a cat AND enjoys painting. My original question was can fans selling on Amazon for a few hundred dollars and listed as explosion-proof be trusted to be as they claim. I don't want BIG BOOM but I don't want a gaping hole in my budget either. After digesting the healthy debate and information provided above I am considering setting up as follows:

- Putting up 9mil plastic sheeting from floor to ceiling around the perimeter of the garage with a 3'- 4' offset from the walls
- opening the 3 windows in the garage and fitting them with A/C filters. (1 on the West wall and 2 on the North wall)
- Getting 2 inexpensive "Explosion-proof?" fans (Amazon or TSC) and building a plenum lined with 5 20"x20" activated carbon filters fronted by dust/overspray filters, either individual or continuous mat style.
-Creating openings in the west sheeting and venting the plenum under the garage door on the East wall.

My assumption is that this will create a cross breeze inside the paint area and the carbon filters will help reduce the volume of volatile fumes that will reach the fans. A sanity check and/or recommendations are welcome.

I know the risk is never zero but based on the discussion above the odds appear to me in my favor.
