Indoor paint jobs don’t smell so bad anymore

Some paint stores are now offering paint additives like “PaintPouri” which adds fragrance to the paint. 

I’ve had two indoor painting projects that I’ve had to complete and have tried two different fragrances.  Now some say the strength of the smell is a bit overpowering, but I don’t notice it so much. 

After the recent flooding, the scent was a welcomed guest in my home and based on previous experience, it’s likely to last 3 - 6 months.

Old school painters used to recommend putting a little bit of vanilla extract into the paint.  The best handling for paint smells is to get the paint to dry faster.

When the paint is fully dry, the smell will go away.  So turn up the heat or put a space heater in the room to make the smells go away. 

The next time you have an indoor paint job, be sure to ask for Paintpouri.  It’s like lighting a room full of candles that burn for months.
