An interesting point is that when I had remodeling done on my home, I
was often better off with really stinky epoxy paint or Killz paint-
that stuff cures so quick, I could be in the same room within a few
days to a week of painting. Not to live in, but to be in for awhile.
Now latex paint gives me headaches for months- it must take forever to
cure.
That is alot of the problem with any mold or musty odor- if you can
smell it, it is a VOC that has the potential to cause toxic damage, to
most people and espcially to one who is already compromised.
I know of a man who makes old Airstream trailers for people with
chemical sensitivities (I think). He guts them and rebuilds them.

Now does anyone know if the new glue is any better- is formaldehyde
free
wood glue non-VOC?
I imagine all synthetic glues have this problem of volatility. Simple
PVA glue is fairly OK.
The trouble is they want use the expanding and volatile compounds
because of ease of joinery and construction in assembling the stuff:
it takes little skill or preparation and finishing, and so an increase
in profits.
Of course, half the problem is how long they continue to have VOC's,
as well as the rate.
Any improvement is a step in the right direction. But he problem is,
that our home and offices and vehicles are so saturated with VOCS, and
it's an accumulative poisoning.
Caravans and mobile homes are so toxic to my senses, that I will only
hover on the edge. I couldn't sleep i one really. or not without the
doors and window open. Worse with the heater on.
