lead paint testkit
 

Does anyone have a lead paint testing kit? I am curious if the tools
and machines we use every day have lead in the paint just like the
toys do. If I can find a kit, I'm going to test my Grizzly mill/drill.
I know it was made in China.

My $0.02 worth.

Even if they do have paint in them, they would only harm you if you
ate that paint (like kids do on a regular basis).

They do.

So do most of the old American iron that we love.

The danger of leaded paint is when you disturb it...like when you
strip the paint by mechanical means and then breathe the dust.

OhMyBuddha! Don't do that, Paul! You could unleash the DEADLY LEAD
PARTICLES. Check with OSHA and the DEQ before you do anything so
totally dangerous and unsafe as that.

(Now I'm gonna throw up.)

The real response: Who freaking CARES if it might have a bit of lead
in the paint? You're not going to feed the entire machine tool to your
grandson, are you? Drop it. It's a moot issue.

At least for houses in New England, it's arguably a legal blunder to get
a private house tested for lead paint. Most houses built before 1978
have lead paint - it was the good stuff, and was widely used, especially
on exteriors. And lead paint stayed bright white, even as it weathered.
White houses are an icon in New England.

That it was poisonous was also widely known, for centuries. So, you
kept the paint in good repair.

Then the world changed, lead was a bad thing. But all those icons were
still white, thick with lead. Millions of them.

When one sells a house these days, one is asked to certify its freedom
from lead paint. But you can also say "unknown" if it has never been
formally tested. It has no obvious effect on the marketability of an
old house to say "unknown", so that's what's done. Nobody is fooled.

And if he ever finds out that there's asbestos in his popcorn ceiling
or that his carpets/drapes/upholstery were all made with formaldehyde,
he's a goner, fer sher.

That's IF he survives Global Warming(kumbaya).

What can I say, the Golden Gate isn't as it was - Eco's forced
a paint change. Just like they did on the Naval ships - but that caused
problems with the hull.
