I get hyper and sleepless when painting with latex paints. I want to repaint some walls inside this summer, but I dread the way I feel when I do!
 Has anyone ever had that happen?

Try a "low VOC" paint.

I wonder if these paints are as durable as latex? I have Consumer Reports at home, I'll check tonight. Thanks for the info Julie!

Sorry about that Wiz. I don't have that problem. Hope the new low fumes paint helps. I do know there are "green" paints out there but not sure how well they adhere or last.
Let us know what you find out.
