    Paint fumes

    How bad are paint fumes? We are moving floors today - to a reburfished floor. I just took some items up before and the smell of paint was quite strong. I'm hoping it will be gone by Monday when we are settled in.

    Should I avoid the floor today and not take any more items up?

    i am not sure too much - it depends think on the type of paint - hopefully its not lead based any more - try to avoid if possible babe - good excuse to get others to do it for you!!

    Well after I wrote that post I didn't go upstairs anymore. I think I heard someone say the smell was paint stripper. It has better be gone by Monday as we'll be on that floor permanently!
