Some other alternatives on the gas water heater:
1) Before starting work for the day (or evening), first turn up the
water heater a few minutes to get the water nice and hot, then
shut it totally off while you are sanding or working. Then after
waiting for the dust to settle and the conditions to be ok for a
flame then restart the pilot.
2) Or, put up a curtain, well away from the water heater, which will
keep the dust away from that section of you garage.
Think the whole situation through, I have never owned a gas waterheater
nor have I worked with composite materials, these ideas may not be good
in all cases.
