Reply To: Lead paint?

I used to bite lead  .22 bullets apart and I’m OK, I think, maybe, possibly.  Not sure, can’t concentrate on that.

Also done worse, like climbing an operating radar tower once and being bombarded with RF.  That was forty+  years ago and no signs of cancer or disrupted DNA yet. Knock on wood.

As with most toxic things around us, if you don’t disturb them, everything will be fine. Asbestos in old linoleum, plaster/drywall, or Arborite (P Lam) are dormant until they are cut or disturbed which releases the fibres into the air. Sometimes best to let that old sleeping dog just lie there without waking him up.
