I just released a new video about cleaning floors, Lead-Safe. Disposable vs Reusable Supplies - How the 2-Bucket Method does NOT clean floors Lead Safe - A demonstration with red food coloring as the stand-in for real lead dust, showing how the 2-bucket method is great for cleaning up big messes, but doesn't clean Lead-Safe.
This video is controversial because, when you look around the internet for how to clean floors Lead-Safe, the 2-bucket method appears everywhere. On its own, the 2-bucket method doesn't work to clean Lead-Safe. In forthcoming videos, I will explain how it's part of the cleanup process after a lead abatement or RRP job, but it shouldn't be the only method. This is my opening salvo!!
