Lead-Safe vs Lead-Free

There’s a world of difference between Lead-Safe and Lead-Free. Why? Because there’s no such thing as Lead-Free. Let me repeat that. 

There is no such thing as Lead-Free!

Lead is found everywhere in our environment… in the soil, in the air, and of course, in lead paint. I have performed inspections all over Northwest Ohio, including Perrysburg, Whitehouse, Bryan, Toledo, and more. I’ve been hunting down sources of lead dust, finding lead dust, and helping families figure out where it’s coming from and what to do about invisible lead dust.

I'm Anthony Weaver, a Lead Risk Assessor with Lead Paint Detectives. Was your home built before 1978? More than likely, lead paint was used. Homes built before 1978 have a high likelihood that lead paint was used. The older the home is, the more likely lead paint is present.

So, if there’s no such thing as Lead-Free, what do you do?

You create a Lead-Safe home. Lead-painted friction surfaces like doors, windows, old cabinets… they all create invisible lead dust that’s toxic to humans. You can check to see if you have invisible lead dust issues with Lumetallix Instant Lead Detection test. You can check on your friction surfaces and after you’ve cleaned, to make you've cleaned Lead-Safe.

Lumetallix Instant Lead Detection test is easy to use, and you get the results instantly.

If it glows NEON GREEN, you’ve found invisible lead dust!

Protecting you and your family from toxic lead dust is extremely important. You're already cleaning, you might as well be cleaning Lead-Safe.

The Lead Paint Detectives have produced videos about Lead-Safe cleaning techniques and methods, products to use, what to do, and what not to do. The videos show that with proper Lead-Safe cleaning techniques, you can live Lead-Safe in a lead-painted home.

Remember, there’s no such thing as Lead-Free… there’s only living healthy and Lead-Safe.
