Choose paints that DON'T give back.

1

Painting is one of the best ways to refresh a room. Unfortunately, most paints aren’t good for us: They give off volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, which can cause short- and long-term adverse health effects Look for paints that say “low VOC” or “zero VOC,” as well as paint strippers that are nontoxic and biodegradeable. Have any of you tried the greener paints and/or strippers? What brands worked, and what didn't, and where did you find them? Tell us about your experience using them!

I got my paints down at Your Home Your World in Concord. Meredith was great in helping me. The paints really don't give off the smells that give me headaches. They don't cover as well but it beats all the smells.
