Nowadays if you go to the hardware store in the paint section they will have 0 voc section. Remember, any tint you add, adds voc's. I just did mine white (cool under night bulbs btw) so I was not adding anything to harm them. There should be lots to choose from since thats how as a .... race/society we are going, improve your enviroment etc, almost all companys have a 0 voc, and they have to list voc rating on cans...lower better!!!



Bear in mind your over the pond from us. Your paint tin markings are going to be totally differant to ours I'd image.



Ahhh thats right, never even thought about it!
