2. A dust mask or respirator should be worn by all persons enter-
ing the work area. The filter should be replaced daily or when-
ever the wearer has difficulty breathing.
NOTE: Only those dust masks suitable for working with lead

do not offer this protection. See your local hardware dealer for
the proper N.I.O.S.H. approved mask.

work area to prevent ingesting contaminated paint particles.
Workers should wash and clean up BEFORE eating, drinking
or smoking. Articles of food, drink, or smoking should not be left
in the work area where dust would settle on them.

ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY

1. Paint should be removed in such a manner as to minimize the
amount of dust generated.
2. Areas where paint removal is occurring should be sealed with
plastic sheeting of 4 mils thickness.
3. Sanding should be done in a manner to reduce tracking of paint
dust outside the work area.

CLEANING AND DISPOSAL

1. All surfaces in the work area should be vacuumed and thor-
oughly cleaned daily for the duration of the sanding project.
Vacuum filter bags should be changed frequently.
2. Plastic drop cloths should be gathered up and disposed of
along with any dust chips or other removal debris. They should
be placed in sealed refuse receptacles and disposed of through
regular trash pick-up procedures.
During clean up, children and pregnant women should be kept
away from the immediate work area.
3. All toys, washable furniture and utensils used by children
should be washed thoroughly before being used again.
