Hi All, I was wanting to know with older properties before you start painting do most people get a lead test kit from bunnings? has anyone had dealings with lead based paint? is it easy to prime / paint over? or strip? any information will be greatly appreciated. Cheers, Elives
Its easier to assume the paint IS lead-based and then avoid sanding, cutting and dust release. Lead alert - Six step guide to painting your home The cost to remove may be tax deductible where the property is rented.
