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 mil (0.10 mm) 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
thoroughly 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.
