in the paint that was really bad smelling and it reminded me of some paints a long long time ago my career i opened up that had been in somebody's garage that mill dude and it had an extreme strong odor of mildew but i figured okay you know we're going to be painting the inside of this building and it's going to dry and go away you know fairly soon anyways no big deal well literally a month later there was complaints from the people in the building that the odor was making them sick and it just was extremely strong and it literally it did take more than a month for the odor of this product to go away and this is the batch that it came from and the product we were painting with right here and it's the worst smelling paint that i've ever smelled in my life now i've got um some products here that we have in paintlifesupply.com and they're eliminate odors and paint now i'm going to test to see if it's going to get rid of this odor now what i smell is an extremely strong smell of mildew um or mold and so i'm not sure if there's active living mold in there it just smells like it really really bad this can has been sitting for a while um open it up you got got resins at the top of the can that are sitting there needs to be stirred up um it's already smelling really bad from right here and um that building when i would go in that building um several weeks later i was actually getting kind of nauseated and sick from it i highly recommend
