I built my tortoise table last weekend for my Spur-thighed which I'm getting tomorrow... yes tomorrow...
and as a surprise, my girlfriend decided to paint it with regular acrylic paint. I was like urghhh it isn't non toxic paint, but ofc I told her thanks and smiled, never pi*s off a girl haha![Big Grin :D :D](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
What can I do now? The paint doesn't have an odor anymore, it's been dry for 2 days and it isn't flaking off. Will it be safe for my tortoise which will be in it tomorrow? My only idea would be to purchase a bottle of Spray Polyurethane to hopefully seal the toxic paint, but where would I house my tortoise till it cures?(I'll use water-based). Maybe it's not an issue since the paint isn't flaking off? Where would I house the tortoise till I seal the paint, if I do?
Thanks so much.
