      I would ask the paint store where you bought it and see what they say and suggest.  I am not quite sure.  I would think it would need to be paint for the interior.  It may have some type of fumes that are harmful.  If you do use it make sure you have plenty of air coming in and out of the house and you wear a mask.

        If it's exterior latex paint go ahead, there's no problem whatsoever. If it's oil based, i wouldn't because the fumes will last for quite some time.

        I asked my pro painter the same thing, as the paint in my master bath is peeling and retains a thin sheen of moisture which faintly streaks the walls. Esp after my teenagers take long showers.  He suggested exterior latex (latex only not oil) based paint to avoid the moisture problems. I also researched it on my own and now feel ok using this.

        No. Don't do it it will be a mess. The exterior paint has a very strong smell you don't really noticed but if you applied inside the smell going to be there for a long time. Use interior paint.
