What happens if I slept in a room that smells like paint?

Question

My closet ceiling had just been painted and my window was open too. I feel kinda dizzy. What usually happens? is it dangerous?

Answer 1

wellyou should give it at least a day to dry.get some fresh air.you should be fine.if you have a fan.put it in or near a window blowing out.because it is a closit the air cant get to it.

Answer 2

You killed a few brain cells, but you'll get better.  Just get out of the room if it's bothering you - sleep on the couch until it airs out or something.

Answer 3

Its not life threatening, the dizziness was caused by the residual fumes of the paint, leave the room well ventilated until the fumes disappear, and you should be fine.

Answer 4

when i painted my room i tried to sleep in it that same night, but it made me light headed and gave me a sore throat. i moved to a diff room, anyway it went away and all was well. however it can be dangerous, you could get high and/or  pass out. you should stay away from the paint, and have someone keep an eye on you if your dizzyness doesn'nt go away

Answer 5

If it's latex paint there is no harm..it will smell like paint for awhile..if it was a solvent based paint..then yes..the fumes can hang around a bit...

Answer 6

well if the paint smell is strong they ask you to take at least 2 to 3 dayz off from using the room and air the room out. the paint smell gets into your head making you feel dizzy and it gets into your lungs and could lead to suffocation.... so yup it iz dangerous...very very...

Answer 7

Answer 8

Answer 9
