What is mandatory for contractors is suggested for homeowners.
Lead dust is what you want to avoid:
- Manual scraping is much better than power.
- Hand sanding is much better than power sanders
- Wet wipe down is much better sweeping dry
- HEPA vacs are much safer than ordinary shop vacs
Common sense stuff: N95 (or better, EPA suggests N or P 100) dust masking, hand washing, clothing changing, sealing debris and plastic tarping in (appropriately tough, 3 mil ) plastic bags
