AFM

toxic paint

Warning -----gonna be long as this is one of my most favorite

interests!! BTW- healthhome.com's staff is wonderful, knowledgeable

and willingly returns stuff!!

Safecoat makes wonderful products. We've used lots of their products

in our home (we're remodeling). Our house is cedar outside and after

it was powerwashed I ordered an AFM (company that produces Safecoat)

sealant. Houses have negative pressure inside so whatever goes

outside makes it's way inside quickly. This stuff was great ....made

from flax, soy oil (hey perfect use!) and other stuff. Our painter

LOVED it because it didn't make him sick. THere was NO smell at all

when he was done.

I've also used their glues for our tile work and sealants to keep

other stuff from outgassing.

I did use regular low VOC paint in our home as no one near Atlanta

sells Safecoat and healthyhome could not adjust it to the colors I

wanted. However even low VOC still has an odor and outgasses. I did

a ton of research on this and really believe Safecoat (and one other

company -name?) are truly the only totally non-toxic regular type

paints.(You can also use milk based paints but it would take a ton

for walls and won't hold up)

If I had a child I would use Safecoat in their room for sure as well

as seal other stuff that outgasses (cheap closet doors, built-ins,

molding etc) and get rid of anything that could gives off

formaldehyde (cheap furniture like from Office Depot esp!) and

regular carpet. I would also keep the air filtered. My newphew is

constantly sick and now has asthma...living in Atlanta air of

course! If my brother would take half the stuff out of their house

and put him on a really wholesome diet I believe he'd be fine. But

they have don't put any stock in this. It's a shame ...as my mom

tells me, I have to keep my mouth shut. I've read way too much on

kids and toxic home enviroments to know regular carpets need to go,

filter air, get rid of outgassing paints, lower humidity to lower

molds, throw out ALL the chemical cleaning crap, lower exposure to

electomagnetics ......

It just makes commons sense but not to my brother and sister-in-law.

We also keep HEPA filters going on timers that come on at night and

when we're away...Atlanta has ROTTEN air but so does most of the

country to a lesser degree . My husband does air pollution work so

we " know too much " . I would say if you're living anywhere near a

city this is critical as well as keeping one going in your car. I

commute daily for 30 minutes on expressways and can tell the

difference!

The one in my car is called a Roomaide hepa filter and can be made

to hook to the cigarette lighter. The whole setup cost about

$100.00. My dh then wraps an extra charcoal filter around the

outside to increase particle filtering.

One very good source of cheap furniture is Ikea! We ordered all our

library and office furniture from them and will be getting kitchen

cabinets eventually. Europe has a much stricter standard on

formaldhyde emmissions so furniture from Europe (or Canada) has less

in it. Still has some though! I researched Ikea and they are really

trying to lower their's as much as possible. There's no store in

Atlanta so I had to get it all from a catalog sight unseen. I've

been really pleased. It's not high end of course but isn't junky

either. Course you have to put it ALL together....so get lots of

homemade beer brewing and ready!

I've been studying this stuff for about 2-3 years as hopefully when

I retire...great thing about getting older!!!!...I can do something

with nontoxic living enviroments. I'm presently working on

certification from the Institute of Bau-Biology. It's a system from

Gernany of considering the factors making up your living enviroment

as vital to your health and well being as everything else.

Okay I'll stop here!

Bye
