I’m renovating a house that was last inhabited by smokers. My first attempt at painting inside led to the just-applied paint flowing down from the tops of the walls overnight.

I’ve helped renovate several smoker houses. Use Killz paint or a similar product, it works. Wear a mask, the fumes from that shit will fuck you up.

Before I repainted the “flowing” areas I wiped them down with mineral spirits and that seemed to do the trick.
