Floor Part IV

Since the oil paint on the floor was so stinky (and the chemical smell did not go away), we tried putting another layer of regular low-VOC paint over it. Lovely baby blue from the "oops" bin at the local Orange hardware store.


And some ugly purple-brown from the "oops" bin:

Within a few days, the smell in the house was 100% better. I highly recommend this method to anyone with nastified subfloors: bleach, primer, then low- or no-VOC paint to seal in the primer smell. Even after several days of rain, the house doesn't start smelling like pee or chemicals at all. Hooray! Next stop: carpet!
