Sounds like: you are doing the right things....Interior paints may SMELL a good deal but they do not contaminate the air you breathe! (Latex, (the major content of inside paint), particles are too large to enter the deeper portions of our lungs. HOWEVER wearing a mask or using BRUSH only is probably the best way to do interior decorating! Hope this helps Dr Z
