I am using a chisel to remove the black backing that is stuck onto the wooden
stairs. This stuff is turning into black powder was I work. Is this safe to
do? I am wearing a mask. Can I sell it with a shelack primer so it does not
bleed through to new carpet?

I feel dizzy after this. Details matter.

if it is just the foam rubber backing that dried out, no problem, the dust
mask is all you need. Scrape, sand,shellac is all you'd need.

First question would be why you need to remove it? Is new carpet going
over it? If so and it's flat, uniform, why not leave it. With new pad
and carpet it should be fine.

Details, details, details. Posters from that hack group, HomeMoanersHub,
always leave them out; seems to be their hallmark.

Nope, but I do believe all of them were named JoAnne if I'm not
mistaken.

Dust should not harm you but rule of thumb is if there is a dust haze, a
dust mask should be used.

I had the same problem on stairs and a vinyl floor and scraped up what I
could and just had new carpet and backing laid over it.
