ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR PAINT REMOVAL
Extreme care should be taken when removing paint. The
peelings, residue, and vapors of paint may contain lead, which is poisonous.
Exposure to even low levels of lead can cause irreversible brain and nervous
system damage. Young and unborn children are particularly vulnerable.
Before beginning any paint removal process you should determine whether the
paint you are removing contains lead. This can be done by your local health
department or by a professional who uses a paint analyzer to check for lead.
Lead-based paint should only be removed by a professional.
Persons removing paint should follow these guidelines:
1. Keep the work area well ventilated. Open the windows and put an
exhaust fan in one of them. Be sure the fan is moving air from inside to outside.
2. Remove or cover any carpets, rugs, furniture, clothing, cooking
utensils, and air ducts. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
exposure.
3. Place drop cloths in the work area to catch any paint chips or peelings.
Wear protective clothing such as extra work shirts, overalls and hats.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of exposure.
4. Work in one room at a time. Furnishings should be removed or placed in
the center of the room and covered. Work areas should be sealed off from the
rest of the dwelling by sealing doorways with drop cloths.
5. Children, pregnant, or potentially pregnant women and nursing mothers
should not be present in the work area until the work is done and all
cleanup is complete. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
injury.
6. Wear a dust respirator or a dual filter (dust and fume) respirator mask
which has been approved by the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA), the National Institute of Safety and Health (NIOSH),
or the United States Bureau of Mines. These masks and replaceable filters are
readily available at major hardware stores. Be sure the mask fits. Beards and
facial hair may keep the masks from sealing properly. Change filters often.
DISPOSABLE PAPER MASKS ARE NOT ADEQUATE.
7. Keep food and drink out of the work area. Wash hands, arms, and face
and rinse mouth before eating or drinking. Do not smoke or chew gum or
tobacco in the work area.
8. Clean up all removed paint and dust by wet mopping the floors. Use a
wet cloth to clean all walls, sills and any other surfaces where paint or dust is
clinging. DO NOT SWEEP, DRY DUST OR VACUUM. Use a high phosphate
detergent or trisodium (TSP) to wash and mop areas.
9. At the end of each work session, put the paint chips and debris in a
double plastic bag, close it with tape or twist ties and dispose properly.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of exposure.
10. Remove protective clothing and work shoes in the work area to avoid
carrying dust into the rest of the dwelling. Wash work clothes separately. Wipe
shoes off with a wet rag, then wash that rag with the work clothes. Wash hair and
body thoroughly with soap and water.
