Any home improvement aficionados here? I’m repainting a wood table and just used KILZ oil based spray primer on it. It’s winter, so I did it in my basement (I had a respirator on during).... Cont. in comments

I’m venting the room with fans & the two small windows in the basement. The table has dried to the touch, so I moved it outdoors to finish drying.

My questions are:
1) How long until the fumes clear?
2) What else can I do to speed up this process? I have an air purifier running upstairs as well since it smells still.

It will be fine.. just open any vents/windows in basement if you have them and run a fan if you can

Okay great done and done. Next question - I have a kitty, when is she okay to go downstairs again? I moved the litter box upstairs for now 🐱
