5. *Air Quality Control:*

   - Maintain good indoor air quality by using proper ventilation and air filtration systems.

Eco-friendly painting aims to reduce the negative environmental and health effects often associated with traditional paint and coating products. It's an environmentally responsible approach that can be applied in both residential and commercial settings. The specific scope of work may vary depending on the project's size, location, and the type of eco-friendly paint used.
