Learning how to dry paint

I was painting and saw that my white ceiling fan was looking “tired.” I thought I’d swipe some paint across the blades and brighten them up. Here’s where the learning came in. I turned the fan on slow speed to dry it quickly. Boy, was I wrong about that. After a few minutes I noticed paint spots on my cabinets, my clock, my pictures, anything in line sight of the blades.
