This is not news. When I had a rental house in Baltimore in the 90's the city had regular workshops on the responsibilities of landlords to test and remediate lead paint in old houses. I'm glad you're teaching this - actually a little shocked, Wes, that you're saying you were not aware but that means a LOT of people know nothing about it. This is critical for house flippers as well as furniture flippers. Thank you
You are so right. I also didn't know it was _that_ dangerous. I thought it was a concern for painters who do a lot of this. Thanks God I was too lazy to buy old stuff and poison my family with it :-) They should teach this in school instead of some garbage they are teaching.
Very good video. This was an excellent primer for folks new to working with lead paint as well as an excellent refresher for those who have not worked with iot in a while. Well done! 👍
Thanks for this Wes. I have an off topic question about cerusing. I have watched all your videos. I have a honey oak bedroom set - a wedding gift from my parents 30 years ago. Problem is that only the door faces are solid oak and the sides/box and top are laminate. Will cerusing work for these pieces??? PLEASE advise or direct me to the answer or video that will help?? I adore your videos!
Rule number one: don't buy old furniture with lead paint on it ;-) There is probably enough furniture out there to buy instead. BTW, I'm surprised that he said "trash the bag". I hoped the govt had a way to collect it in a controlled place - I heard bringing lead from underground into upper inhabited layers of Earth is ongoing problem of the mankind. Japanese even invented lead-free electronics to combat this poisoning of their environment.
Yeah i figured the contractor was cutting corners or stupid huring a couple imagrants with a couple of side grinders to sand it off not even mentioning this eas going on then blowing it off like no big deal

Great informative video Wes! Thank you both, God bless. ✝️🇺🇸
If you live in a historic neighborhood, have to watch over neighbors so they don't sand moldings upstream of your house.
pretty sure you shouldn't put that in the trash either, there is chemical disposal that the refuse from it should go in.
First like yes!!!!!
I didn't see any info outlining the effects of lead poisoning.
You need to wear gloves when sanding lead paint, even when wet. And you must NOT use paint stripper containing methylene chloride on lead paint!

Hi...your solid doors will work fine with the cerusing, however, the laminate sides and top will not. Sorry. Thanks for the visit. Wes
Hi, Sir,
What is space ball? Where is to buy it?
Thanks
"The EPA had to get involved." That is why it got so expensive.
Thanks for the additional info! Wes
Led paint blocks internet signals
Why did we get rid of our protection.
I’ve never seen a baby eat paint chips
This sounds like a government paid video
These fellas are bad actors 😂
You can actually be lead deficient. lead is delicious!
@@firewheelfarm7095 plenty of led in my pencil.
Is lead based paint synonymous with oil base paint?
No. Lead white is a pigment. You can get oil based paints today and they use Titanium dioxide as a pigment instead of lead white

It just takes a more collective conscious ness to have a societal solution that works with our earths needs.
