When is it safe for a baby to be exposed to surfaces that have been painted with oil paint?

I have painted the trim in a room with oil paint, it is stinky, when can my baby be exposed to the room?When is it safe for a baby to be exposed to surfaces that have been painted with oil paint?
Anytime, In fact use oil paint to paint your baby for halloween, it works the best.When is it safe for a baby to be exposed to surfaces that have been painted with oil paint?
Give the paint at least 48hours in an average temperature of 70 degrees or better! The paint not only needs to dry on the surface but below as well! It will harden and it will be way more durable overal and the odor will have disapated.
Open the windows and leave it air out for a day or so. When the smell goes away then you can put your kid back in there.
