What's more earth friendly?
Rinsing the paint roller after painting or throwing it away? Using low VOC paint, if that makes a difference.
Thanks!
Re: What's more earth friendly?
In Stockholm, the water company recommends wringing out the rollers as much as you can with newspaper (or paper towels, I suppose) and throwing that away, then washing the roller. However, our trash is burned for energy and those facilities have high standards of filters for the air.
It's also good to get paint which is as eco friendly as possible (and carries some sort of eco-certification mark on it).
