Thinking about painting the inside of your home? Here are some expert tips on how to paint your home safely.
- Check your schedule-Schedule painting in dry, cooler months so you can keep your windows open for proper ventilation.
- Use low VOC or VOC free paint-These paints have little to no fumes so you’re not breathing in toxins while you paint.
- Take a breather-Don’t paint for hours on end. Get outside and get some fresh air.
- Remember to ventilate-Make sure your windows are open and use box fans to vent the fumes outside. Keep windows open for 3 days and avoid going into the room.
- Wear fancy eye-ware-Don’t forget to protect your eyes by wearing safety goggles.
When it comes to painting your home remember safety first. Always read the instructions to ensure you’re painting and cleaning up safely.
