It's important to note that Low-VOC, No-VOC, and VOC-Free paints still have VOCs, just not as many when compared to "traditional" paints. No matter the paint, when pigment or color is added, it raises the VOC content level and the odor that is present. Odors can also come from other chemicals in paints that are not considered VOCs. These odors result from the curing process of all components in the coating, also referred to as "off gassing".
How it Works
As any coating, mixed with our additive, is applied to a surface, it mixes with oxygen. The oxygen activates our formula at a molecular level to neutralize odors emitted by the components of the coating and the resultant curing process forthwith, leaving no lingering fragrance. This action produces a high comfort level very quickly with a 75% to 90% reduction in odor. Perfect for areas which require quick reoccupation, such as hospitals, schools, offices, residences, elevators, ship holds, industrial plants, and bathrooms.
PurposeAdditive working in both oil, solvent and water based (waterborne) paints and architectural coatings to create a high comfort level while not affecting paint adhesion, hardness, and overall performance. Low VOC paints, like semi-gloss & high gloss formulas, have an odor from off gassing. Also, once tinted, VOC levels generally increase which also means more odor from the use of pigments.

- REDUCER / THINNER - Add 1 ounce of PAINT ODOR ELIMINATOR per gallon Shake container gently to mix thoroughly
- CATALYST - DO NOT ADD PAINT ODOR ELIMINATOR
- COMBINE - Usual ratios of Topcoat / Catalyst / Reducer per job

- EXCESS COATINGS - Oxygen is the catalyst. Store leftover job material in an air-tight container, short term, for later use with continued results.
Paint Odor Eliminator History
Over 50 years ago, the invention of refinishing products introduced obnoxious smells associated with paints and coatings used in commercial, residential, public and industirial spaces. No matter the location, the overwhelming comments were:
"It looks great ! But, how long before the smell goes away?!
Professionals struggled for years to rid the job site of these odors, trying everything from scented masking agents to expensive air purification systems.
Decades passed. Nothing seemed to help... Enter Bio Zapp Paint Odor Eliminator!
In the early 1990’s, Coronado Negley Paint Company requested our team to create a product that reduces the odor in the architectural coatings they were contracted to apply in confined spaces at the Breckenridge Hospital in Austin, Tx. We went to work
The rest is history.
Bio Zapp Paint Odor Eliminator is the same product we furnished to some of the Paint Industries biggest manufacturers.
Over the years, we have sold the product under the labels of
“Industrial Paint Odor Eliminator,” “ Odor Zapp Paint Odor Eliminator,” “Electrostatic Paint Odor Eliminator,” amongst others.
It's a tried and true formula, furnished worldwide by yours truly, Bio Zapp Laboratories, Inc!
Adding the designated, minimal amount to your coating and reducer, plus working in a properly ventilated space, it will reduce odors within minutes of application. The magic begins when exposed to oxygen, not before, and continues!
Bio Zapp Paint Odor Eliminator, scientifically developed over 30 years ago, uses oxygen as its catalyst during your choice of an application process, attacking the scent molecules and virtually killing the smell.

"I got a chance to try Bio Zapp (Paint Odor Eliminator) today. WOW! I was extremely impressed with how well it worked. Once the tub was sprayed, I left the project and spent about 10 minutes cleaning up my equipment, then went back to pull the fan. Normally, the odor is quite heavy but I barely noticed it. I also must add another benefit. I occasionally put some material in a Preval sprayer for touch ups, if needed, and most times I don't go back to the truck to get a respirator. Since I have asthma, the fumes from the Preval usually kick in the asthma and I suffer for a day. This job needed a bit of a touch up and I spayed without the respirator (as foolish as that is) and no asthma!! You have a great product. Consider me a life long user from this day forward”
