LeadQUICK(TM) Home Paint Kit (487924-V) provides visual test for determining compliance with EPA-recommended maximum level of lead (Pb) in paint (1 mg/cm²). Chemical reactions produce visible color change within 22 min if lead compounds, including lead chromate, are present. Using wedged paint chip that measures all paint layers for lead, kit detects lower levels - from 0.05 to 1.2 mg/cm² - within 13 min. Each kit includes 25 tests.
A new home based kit for screening lead levels in paint
Lead exposure can cause serious health problems, especially in young children. When lead is absorbed into the body, it can cause damage to the brain and other vital organs. The greatest concern is even "low level" lead exposure reduces children's ability to learn. Lead-based paint becomes a hazard when it starts to wear, chip, or peel, or while it is being removed by sanding or stripping. In 1978 lead-based paint was banned in the United States but more than 80 percent of homes built before 1978 still contain lead. In most states a home seller must disclose their home was tested for lead.
Now it is easier to screen your home for leaded paint. Industrial Test Systems, Inc. is proud to announce the revolutionary new LeadQUICK(TM) Home Paint Kit (487924-V). It's an accurate, affordable and easy to use visual home test kit for testing the EPA recommended maximum level of lead in paint (1 mg Lead per cm²). Unlike the popular swab method that only tests for lead only on the surface, the new LeadQUICK(TM) Home Paint Kit uses a wedged paint chip that measures all paint layers for lead. The kit involves chemical reactions that produce a visible color change in 22 minutes in the presence of lead compounds including lead chromate. LEADQuick(TM) Paint Lead Kit detects in 13 minutes the following low levels: 0.05, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 and >1.2, mg/cm². The kit includes 25 tests for $59.99. A professional version using a meter (487925-EM) is also available. For more information, please contact us at 1-800-861-9712 or www.sensafe.com.
