    UK interior-paint odor controversy

    A formulation change affecting a Valspar interior paint sold through B&Q was followed by widespread complaints about a severe sulfur-like odor. The issue was linked to bacterial growth in affected paint, particularly under warm conditions. After initially pointing to environmental or surface-preparation factors, Valspar acknowledged contamination concerns and offered compensation for professional redecoration and related sealing work.
