What are the major sources of recreational/hobby exposure to lead?
Sources include: stained glass making, home remodeling, glazed pottery making, firearm use and ammunition reloading, burning candles with lead wicks, and fishing sinker molding. If working with lead is unavoidable, carefully read and follow all labels and instructions, and take extra precautions to prevent ingesting or inhaling lead dust and fumes. Wash hands often and keep work areas clean and dust free. Wet mop floors and wipe down tables after working with materials containing lead. Do not allow children near work areas.
