Can You Seal Lead Paint Furniture?


by DoItYourself Staff

If you find lead paint on a piece of wood furniture, you have a few different options when it comes to handling the problem. One of the solutions that you could choose to pursue is sealing the paint in. If you want to do this, you must use a special encapsulating paint that is designed to seal up lead paint. You should apply 2 coats of the paint just to make sure that the lead is permanently sealed. This will prevent the lead from getting out and causing health problems.
