Here is the latest:

Until Dec 21 2008 you must have certificate showing that none of the
products contain lead (MSDS for paint) or the product must be a natural
untreated material that does not contain lead. All products must be labeled
with the date of Manufacture.

After December 21 2008 all painted products must have 3rd party
certification for lead content

After Feb 10 2008 all products must have 3rd party certification to be sold.

So basicaly anything made before December 21st 2008 is good if you don't use
lead ln the product.

Clear finishes are not considered paint at this time. Stains are not
considered paint at this time.

Get your letters and e-mails in to let them know how foolish this is.

So, until they change it (again), my process of Danish oil and buffing with the
Beall system would seem ok...

Until Feb 10th.

I wonder how they would feel about using FDA 21CFR175.300 as an
approved list of coatings not requiring testing after Feb 10th.
