The organic solvents of paint contain benzene and other toxic and harmful substances, which are not conducive to environmental protection during construction and later use. The toxic and harmful substances after the construction will slowly evaporate, which poses a potential threat to human health. At the same time, the paint It is flammable, and there is also a certain fire hazard.
