Mythic paint is based on a breakthrough technology that
improves on latex paint at its core. It is scientifically formulated to offer
all of the premium qualities of conventional water-based paints without the
need for toxic solvents. No toxic solvents means no toxic smell.
Some VOCs are greenhouse gases and therefore contribute to
global warming and others are just plain bad for your health. While a few VOCs
occur naturally from cows and trees, many come from manufactured products such
as paint thinners, paints and varnishes and dry cleaning solvents. These VOCs
can contribute to human illnesses and have been determined to be a cause of
‘sick building syndrome’. The EPA has found concentrations of VOCs in indoor
air to be 2 to 5 times greater than in outdoor air due to paint and other
products. VOCs are typically reported as
grams per liter on the side or bottom of paint containers. The average gallon
of paint contains at least 150 grams per liter of VOC.
Mythic Paint is a zero-VOC, Zero-carcinogenic, premium
quality line of latex paints. Mythic provides and requires a Zero-VOC colorant
system that maintains zero-VOCs and provides bright and beautiful colors.
Mythic® paint is a non-toxic, ultra low odor paint that
provides the durability and coverage you expect from a premium paint without
the off-gassing VOC’s and cancer-causing toxins that emit years after
drying. Mythic Paint was developed in
cooperation with the University of Southern Mississippi. The guaranteed high-performance paint is
available in a 1,232-color palette and in all sheens for interior and exterior
use.
Meanwhile, Mythic Pro ™ is designed specifically for use by
painting professionals. Mythic Pro TM meets criteria for coating used in LEED ®
certified buildings. Mythic Pro ™ was developed for rapid commercial
application and has no cancer-causing toxins or VOC’s that can off-gas for
years.

Where can I buy Mythic paint? I have recently become aware of VOCs and started purging my household of their harmful gasses. I've read about other low VOC or VOC free paint but heard that durability is an issue.
