Hope the gloves etc. work. Your paint sounds amazing though -- 50% savings on light! Wish I'd known about it earlier, but when we do some more redecorating I'll deefinitely see if it's available here. Glad you’re feeling better, but what a nuisance developing an allergy to paint!

Sorry, I haven't been able to visit for a few days as things have been a bit busy here - hard work as snowed in for a week & a half (got off the farm for the first time yesterday!) - plus I'm getting ready for kidding (I suspect Ninny's about to pop!). Part of the Squadron I ran whilst in the RAF included a Petrols, Oils & Lubricants Section (POL) which essentially managed aircraft refuelling, & the associated systems (a bit like a petrol station only on an absolutely massive scale - & we take the fuel to the 'vehicles', not the other way around!). One of the Section's duties was to manage the multitude of paints on the Station - as you can imagine we had a pretty diverse range! However this Section had a very high staff turnover; as many people developed allergic reactions to the products over time. I suppose it's a bit like beekeeping; get stung too often & you run the risk of getting an increasingly extreme reaction. So keep those antihistamines handy...! Glad it turned out to be nothing more horrible & lingering - there are few things worse than an itchy, allergic rash! Thank goodness you’re feeling better!
