Stripping lead-based paint
Extreme care should be taken when stripping paint. The
peelings, residue and vapours of paint may contain
lead, which is poisonous. Any pre-1960 building may in
the past have been painted with paint containing lead.
This paint may be covered with additional layers of
paint. Once deposited on surfaces, hand to mouth
contact can result in the ingestion of lead.
Exposures to even low levels of lead can cause
irreversible brain and nervous system damage. The
greatest danger of lead poisoning is to children and
pregnant women.
Before starting work, it is important to determine
whether the paint to be stripped contains lead. This can
be done using a test kit or by a professional decorator.
Do not smoke, eat or drink in a work area that could or
may be contaminated by lead. Lead based paints
should only be removed by a professional and should
not be removed using a heat gun.
