Exterior paint interior use?

violetlris, Apr 16, 2:42am
I just bought some paint but didnt notice it was exterior and want to use it inside, can I do that? and is it safe to do so?

I don't know the answer - but I have used exterior paint indoors many times. No ill effects.

you will end up with a surface that is stronger, if your roof leaks all will be sweet.

Better that than the other way around.

It may be gloss paint and reflect irregularities in the wall.
Otherwise it will be fine.

What would be unsafe about that idea?
