I cannot tolerate paint, eyes sting and water, nose itches and smell causes nausea . I have had a lot of work done in bathroom and painting it cannot be avoided . I can't move out whilst painting is carried out - this I did in the past. Have googled non toxic, non smelly paints and find it confusing .

Please can someone advise, please ?

we were told water based gloss and satinwood paints do not smell so much but they are not as durable. i like the smell of paint though...

Quite pricey but worth it for the quality. Their water based paints are low in odour.

thank you for replies

there are so many paint companies and a recommendation is such a help, Farrow - Ball it is , not as pricey as putting dogs in kennels and staying in a local hotel for a few nights !

Many thanks
