Environmentally friendly primer requires less air renewal than traditional primers.
Interior use of traditional oil-based primer may require multiple air renewals due to the build up of
fumes in the air. Primers made with Toluene and Mineral Spirits require up to 9.5 air renewals per hour!
Proper ventilation is necessary not only for the comfort of contractors and occupants, but also to
comply with Occupational Exposure Limits (OEL). See exactly how much ventilation is needed for safe
application of paint sealer, primer for new drywall and other interior surfaces in the Air Change Index (ACI).
Odorless oil-based primer with lower VOCs requires less air renewal and blocks stains more effectively.
Opening windows and using fans to renew and refresh the air is one way to reduce solvent fumes.
A better way is to use high quality paint primer specially formulated not to give off fumes. With
an air renewal rate 3 to 6 times lower than traditional oil-based primer made with Toluene and
Mineral Spirits, oil-based, low VOC primers are less hazardous for contractors and customers.
The graph below shows the number of times the air needs to be refreshed in an hour.
