I need an odorless paint forinterior walls?
I am getting ready to attempt a first time do-it-myself interior paint job in my apartment. Any help or advice would be much appreciated! I am trying to figure out if there is an odorless paint on the market I can purchase for this project due to my children being in the home when I am painting. If there is such paint, where do I find it? Once I find it what kind should I get? Glossy, Matte, Satin... is price the only difference or is quality an issue? What type of paint is it that you notice pealing off like dead skin, that kind I surely don't want to use? Will any brand of paint be okay to use (purchased at a discount store like Big Lots)? I am not looking for perfection or a million dollar appearance, just want to get rid of the pastel green walls. Thanks for your time and help! I also need to know about how many cans of paint I would be looking at having to purchase? I estimate the rooms and halls to be painted at approx. 900 square feet total.
Latex/acrylic or other water based paints are easiest. You just use water to clean brushes, spills, and yourself when done. Glossy/satin/matt are shininess of finish, not related to quality. The same paint can come in any of the three. In general it is easier to scrub glossy clean but the newer matt ones are about as easy to clean. That peeling came from bad surface preparation - like not getting grease off the walls before painting. Most of the off price stores buy the same brands of paint as the fancy places. In fact they usually get them when a fancy place goes belly-up and clears out their paints. Some of it they get when a chain store changes to a new brand and the store insists that the new supplier buy back all the old stuff to clear their shelves - the new supplier sells it cheap to the off price stores. There are also custom premixed paints at Lowe's and Sears where they mix a color for a customer and the customer says no that is not exactly right. Sears sells those in their clearance section of paint dept for $2.74 per gallon. If you want the color they have that is fancy paint cheap. Low-odor paints are available from brands like Behr's at Home Depot. It is marked clearly on the cans.
Is it okay for a dogs urine tobe clear and odorless?
My dogs urine has never looked like this before. She has urinated twice and both times it has come out clear and odorless. Someone told me it means she is drinking a lot of water but actually she hasn't. She drinks about the same amount everyday except for when it's hot and today it's fairly breezy. So could something be wrong? If something is wrong with her uterus, will she show any pain?

Colorless urine with little to no odor indicates very dilute urine. Normally this is simply from drinking large quantities of water, which in itself can indicate a problem, such as diabetes. If she is not drinking more water than usual, another reason behind unusually dilute urine would be kidney failure, where the kidneys are no longer concentrating the urine properly. There could certainly be other reasons, so don't panic. Keep a very close eye on exactly how much water she is drinking and how often she is urinating. If these signs continue, or if she shows other signs such as lethargy or decreased appetite, she may benefit from a vet checkup. Dilute urine does not usually indicate uterine disease, although if she isn't spayed, that is certainly a possibility. Best wishes to you and your girl and I hope that everything is fine.

Can a Zippo lighter be filledwith Odorless Mineral Spiritsinstead of Zippo LighterFluid?
I've heard that Odorless Mineral Spirits are close to the same thing as Zippo fluid. So, does that mean I can use it for my Zippo lighter? If yes, what are the consequences (if any)? What are other choices?
You could try it without any harm. You can't get a bottle of Ronson for 3 or 4 dollars? Your other choice is Naptha, which is commonly used in Zippos as an alternative. I do not believe you will damage anything. There is really nothing to damage. There may be some stink, though, so I would not smell it.
