Default heat gun and lead paint

wrote in message
...


I have seen walls and molding with 5-7 layers of paint. Chemical
peels were a total disaster. They never worked more than 90% of the
time.

I have, basically 12-18 window and door frames to repaint, a
staircase, a mantle, and 3 full rooms.

What's your advice on this one? Brand recommendations?



1. Don't chew the painted surfaces.
2. With 5-7 layers of paint, I'd expect maybe the first two or 3 to be
lead-based and the rest not. In other words, nothing I'd worry about.
