Buy latex paint
When buying latex paint, you must choose products with manufacturer, name, address, production date and registered trademark, and pay attention to their production batch number. Avoid choosing products that are too cheap, try to choose well-known brands, and the purchase channels should be guaranteed, such as local large shopping malls or reputable specialty stores. At the same time, keep the purchase invoice so as to protect rights when there are problems in the future.
Remove odor
After painting latex paint, it needs to be ventilated for nearly a month to remove the unpleasant smell. Because latex paint stinks easily if it is not stored properly. The newly renovated house will have to wait at least two weeks to move in. At the same time, continuous window ventilation is helpful to completely dispel the odor.
Environmental protection characteristics
As a waterborne coating, latex paint has excellent film performance, which completely solves the toxicity problem of organic solvents. Its film-forming substance is composed of some polymer aqueous solutions, which contain a small amount of emulsifier and free monomer in addition to water and safe and harmless polymers. However, the free monomer has certain toxicity, so the concentration of free monomer in environmentally friendly latex paint is controlled below 0. 1%. When shopping, knowing this information will help you make more informed choices.
Precautions for use
When using latex paint, attention should be paid to protecting eyes and skin from direct contact. Pay attention to ventilation when painting to avoid inhaling harmful gases. If you have dizziness, nausea and other unwell symptoms, you should stop using them immediately and seek medical attention in time. In addition, brushes and tools should be cleaned in time after use to avoid dry paint film.
