" VOC is short for volatile organic compounds, gases that are emitted from paints and that can cause health problems. Almost every paint company has now introduced low- or no-VOC paints. But did you know that when you buy these paints, it&amp;#039;s only the base that&amp;#039;s free of or low in VOCs? Once a colorant is added, VOCs are put right back in. The deeper the color you chose, the greater the number of VOCs. Well, that&amp;#039;s going to change in September when Lowe&amp;#039;s introduces reformulated colorants that are completely free of VOCs.
