Grizzley, cigarette-smoking painter Tim loves No VOC Paint!

Don't you love it when a seller gets behind your marketing efforts? My Mt Airy seller has been fabulous! His late sister's home sits up 25 steps. The hill affords privacy and a lovely view of the sunset but the steps are a pain. After 19 years of living and working in the house, his sister had accumulated plenty of stuff. The first time I saw the place, I could tell right away that the family had already removed a lot of things. Stager Jessica Endy, however, still saw a lot of clutter. This weekend the seller and the extended family are taking a lot more things out. And that is Super! But even better--they agreed to paint. Yeah. A chance to use No VOC paint--the kind without toxic vapors. Out of my own pocket, I kicked in the additional $10 a gallon. Benjamin Moore mixed up a Sherwin Williams color. It is Pittsburgh Paint. "Great coverage" said Tim the painter. Tim will soon paint Jessica's kitchen. Her husband gets free paint at his job. If they opt for the regular, free kitchen-appropriate paint, Tim advised Jess to take herself and her baby out of the house for 2 full days when he paints. Tim gets headaches from the kind of tough kitchen paint they want to use, he says. No baby should be breathing it. If a tough bird like Tim gets why No VOC paint is worth it, a seismic shift should occur in the paint industry sooner rather than later!
