I am helping paint a house that is about 65 years old at least. The parts inside are well over 100. Anyway, there is real paneling in it and the imitation paneling in it. There were smokers in the house as renters. They literally turned the ceilings and walls an ugly brown, so I primed the walls and ceilings tiles with Kilz. Due to the paneling situation, I have literally had to paint the walls about 4 times with Kilz colored paint. The walls just drink up the paint. My question is that everytime I am in the house I sneeze a lot. I don't know if it's the painting or just dust. What do you think Lar?
This house doesn't have insulation behind the paneling. It has (get this) boxes from a parachute factory.
The house has asbestos siding, but I have done my reading and their is less than 1% asbestos in siding on this house. My grandparents never had a health problems from it. They lived well into their 80's. The guy next door is 100! I am just rolling with a one coat Kilz paint on the house. It looks brand new.
