My husband is painting the kitchen trim with an oil base paint. Does anyone know how to help with the smell? Thanks!

Believe it or not but sliced onions in a bowl of ice water placed in the room being painted removes the odor of paint....and you won't smell the onions either.

Before you paint next time, add a few drops of vanilla extract.

Fresh air and fans, even in cool weather. Shut off that room and open the windows for a few hours. Put in a couple fans.
