Paint safety

Paint safety involves handling and using paint in a way that minimizes health risks and environmental impact. Always work in well-ventilated areas to avoid inhaling fumes, and wear protective gear like masks and gloves to prevent skin contact. Store paints securely away from children and pets, and dispose of leftovers properly according to local regulations. Be mindful of paints containing harmful chemicals like lead or volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and opt for low-VOC or natural alternatives when possible. Following these precautions helps protect your health and the environment during painting projects.
