For Behr paint? How many rooms are you doing? No more than two gallons per room. I can't see how you got over $200 for the paint.[/quote]

I can't say I'm surprised to see that the posts got snarky but really appreciate the reassuring ones. I get that not everyone frets about this stuff. I try not to go overboard with avoiding life due to risk, but it seems to me that when we can limit something fairly easily, we should. There are pretty clear cut studies linking the VOC's in paint to a host of health issues. Trust me, I've been trying to look for info that I find reassuring, and finding the opposite.

BTW, the rooms are big, the celings are very high, and we're doing ceilings as well, and the only thing that is the same color in all rooms is the trim. So absolutely yes, more than "two gallons" a room. But, still, you got me, I threw in the paintbrushes and tarp we replaced in my total as well, and maybe a random bottle of water. So sue me! It came close to $400.
