Paint fumes: the solution


My latest million damn dollar idea: Scented Paint.

We've been painting our bedroom, and the work has been dormant for several days due to travel, sickness, and ennui. But even dried paint still smells a little bit like wet paint.

BUT! What if it was lilacs instead? Or bubblegum -- whatever people like to smell, I don't know. What if you could engineer a way for that smell to linger, so your freshly painted bedroom smelled like lilacs for months after? You could make it scratch 'n' sniff. Unscrupulous landlords could hide odors AND stains by painting over them.

Some chemical scientist get on that, and send me my royalty check when you're done.
