Question from Catherine
Hi,
I am trying to offgass a room that had been painted with regular paint three months ago, the smell is still very strong and cannot go into those rooms. I read someones comment here a while back that the heat needs to get just over 100* to work.
( I cannot find the post)
I have tried to find a way to do this but am not having any luck. All the space heaters have thermostat regulators that only go to 80* or they use propane (thats not going to happen:)I desperately need to get this done so I can live a relatively normal exisistance (and that is putting it gently:) if you have knowledge of what heaters will work and where I can get them I would appreciate the help.
My friend said he worked in an autobody shop and they used infrared heaters, but would not know how or where I could get on to use.
Thanks.

I just use a space heater or the central heat. And it doesn’t need to get to 100 degrees.
But it shouldn’t take three months. Exactly what kind of paint did you use?
