Can you use outdoor paint indoors?
Question:I got some outdoor paint and thought I coudl use it inside, but am not sure. What's the real difference? I'm just using it for trim and one small accent wall.

Yes you can. The indoor paint is not made to stand up to the weather. The outdoor paint has additives to make it tougher against the weather. That is the basic difference.
ask an expert. it is probably a tougher paint, and might not be easy to redo, etc. but if it's not too different, then why not?
