Can scented interior paint actually raise the value of your home, or maybe even sell your home faster? In some instances I am sure this is true depending on the buyer but what is so great about scented interior paint? Is it worth it?
I honestly did not know there was such a thing as scented interior house paint until just recently. I quite actually adore the idea as that awful paint smell from standard interior paint can be very nauseating.
You can actually purchase paint additives as well. Here is a brief list of scents you can expect from paint additives and scented paint:
- Fruity Scent
- Laundry Scent
- Floral Scent
- Natural Scent
The additives can combat the fresh paint oder’s but what about actual scented interior paints? BEHR currently sells some scented interior paints that may be of interest to you:
- Herbal Scent
- Pine Scent
- Scented Clove
- Scented Valentine
Would you ever consider using a scented interior paint? I know that I am considering it for my next painting project as we are getting ready to sell our home.

You have probably heard of individuals using house paint on their boats but what about marine paint (boat paint) on a house? Is it really effective? Here is what you need to know prior to using marine paint on your house.
Marine paint, first off, is designed specifically for boats, etc. But what many people do not know is that you can use it as a form of house paint. Specifically hard wood floors. Marine paint is “tough as nails” especially if used in rare hardwood bathroom floors or even outdoor furniture since it is no stranger to getting wet.
What are the added benefits of using marine paint on your house? Check out these facts to decide if you would like to use marine paint on your home:
- Durable
- No-mix formulas available
- Resists cracking, chipping, and peeling
- 10 year warranties available
- Displaces rust causing air and moisture
- Self-levels
- Can be used as a primer and paint in one product
- Conforms to government specifications
- Excellent hardness
Would you ever consider using marine paint on your house? I personally never considered it, but it does sound like it would be as effective as house paint, if not better.
