Please explain how old house paint is introducing heavy metals to the atmosphere without burning them.

 

Thats easy...how many people have you worked with through the years that evidently had more than their share of paint chips? You've gotta figure everytime they sat down for a number two all that lead was going right back into the atmosphere!

 

Seems like a reasonable explanation from someone with the handle of Xplosivo

Welcome to the forum.

 

Thanks, this forum is great! Not only is it helpful it is thoroughly entertaining...

 

You don't have to burn heavy metals to ingest them. Why did they ban them in the first place. The lawnmower crap is just the fact they don't have any exhaust emission control unless brand new. How do 50's lead from paint get into the atmosphere? Ever fart?

 

Not trying to start a heated debate here you don't have to burn **** to get it in you, done 20 plus years of sucking leaded gas out of carb mains and jets, stupid? yes. Lungs full of asbestos brake dust yes.
