Tools and Hardware Reviews of 3M LC-8S20C Lead Check Swabs
Customer Review: Inaccurate Results
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these swab, took a sampling of paint chips from around the house, put them on a plate, and drowned the chips in the solution from the swab, and swirled the chip around with the swab for over 2 minutes. No sign whatsoever of pink or red. The paint chips included all layers of paint, down to the wood.
I thought all was clear to start stripping my interior trim. But then we had a professional come with an x-ray scanner and he confirmed that all of our trim had relatively high levels of lead.
So, these things gave a false negative for Lead. Very dangerous. Get a professional with an x-ray device.
Customer Review: Did not work for me
Summary: 1 Stars
I tried this on several items in the house and all tested negative. However, when I used it on a pencil that is lead, it also tested negative. I dont believe this works.
