Earthpaint Sealers are low-VOC urethane finishes with comparatively less toxic ingredients. Mountain XT is an exterior wood finish. Rainforest sealer can be used for both interior and exterior wood applications.
RESOURCES
Both Mountain and Rainforest are made with D-limonene (a citrus industry byproduct) and the mineral pesticide Zinc Borate. Mountain XT also contains phenolic cashew resin. Earthpaint claims not to use formaldehyde, petroleum derivatives, ethylene glycol, and other common toxins.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
Rainforest claims to locally harvest linseed oil, resin, pine rosin, and beeswax. All sealants are dangerous to waterways and should be disposed of properly. Earthpaint encourages the recycling of the metal cans in which their products are shipped. Earthpaint is not sold in retail locations and is shipped from their factory globally via mail.
HUMAN HEALTH
Earthpaint sealants emit low VOC levels, and exposure should be avoided as usual. Zinc Borate can cause reproductive harm, and cashew extract may cause a poison-ivy-like reaction. Liquid and cured NanoTech should not be in contact with mucous membranes and is considered a hazardous material by OSHA.
