What is Lead And Lead-Based Paint?
Lead is a metal found in the Earth’s crust. It’s an element found in dust, water, and soil and is highly toxic. Lead was added into paint to improve its color and strength. It prevented mold and kept metal from rusting. It is referred to as “lead-based paint” or “lead paint”. Today, producing, selling or using lead paint is prohibited. Exposure to lead dust can cause lead poisoning in children and workers. Any residential property built before1978, could have lead-based paint. Exposure to lead and lead dust is a serious issue.
