LOL! We should start a support group for paint spillers.
I know this post is over a month old
@ShayP . I'm hiding out. I have some time on my hands due to the excessive heat warnings. I am a member of the support club for
paint spillers.
I don't like to hire contractors for small and most jobs. I believe that I my work will be better than others. I am NOT going to explain why I was carrying an open quart of oil base primer paint for metal in my home.
In my home, I prefer hardwood flooring with some area rugs. Gravity took that paint down. I spent hours cleaning up that mess. Not only was there paint on my area rug, my wood floor, the legs of a table, my shoes, but also, on the outside of a cooking pot.
I used mineral spirits for the clean up. The odor from the area rug would not dissipate. The odor of mineral spirits from the rug over took my home. I had to cut up and trash the rug. Since my clean up was so fast, the padding under the area rug was A OK.
The white oil base paint remains on the bottom of my shoes. How did a small splash of paint end up on a pot? I must have transported the paint from my being onto the pot. I left the splash on the pot. I need a reminder to stop being a nitwit.
