Default Blu-ray and SOLVENT use.

Hello,
I want to know if It's just my paranoia or there's a problem with blu-ray if I use solvent in my room.
I have to repaint wooden frames with solvent-based (no aromatic) impregnation and my blu-ray shelves are in the same room.
Is there any problem, even small?
I know that solvent is bad for discs in general, but that refers to felt markers.
Thank you for opinions.

If you are concerned, then you should probably take your discs out of the room while you're using it.

I don't specifically know of any kind of fumes or gases that can harm optical discs, but it is something that, in theory, could be an issue.

If it is something you're concerned about, then it's better to be safe than sorry.

The problem is that I have more than 700 titles, it's a huge problem to find a place and move all there.
I don't know if it's worse repaint frames or move the films?
Maybe, I can cover the shelves... can be a solution?

I would be more concerned about lungs, vent the room(s), place a cheap box fan in a window to exhaust the fumes to the outside, mask the fan with visqueen and tape. Open another window(s) to supply fresh air to the room being painted.

Yes, I'll open the windows for sure because the frames are inside and outside the house, so I need to keep them open.
I know that acetone or turpentine damage polycarbonate, but I don't know if the fumes in open room can harm and reduce lifespan of blu-rays.
They are closed in their amaray, so I'm pretty sure they'll play fine after work, but I don't know the damage in the long run.
