| 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!!! |
