SCITUS KNOW, UNDERSTAND Scitus Lead Test Kit with 30 Testing Swabs Rapid Test Results in 30 Seconds Just Dip in White Vinegar to Use Lead Testing Kits for Home Use, Suitable for All Painted Surfaces

It is very clean and quality product. I will review again after use since I have just brought the product

I just did a test of my outdoor house paint in a house we just purchased that it over 100 years old. Was able to ascertain that there had been lead paint but it had been painted over thickly, to "solve" the issue with non-lead paint. Only it's all flaking off in large square flakes. So the parts that are still solidly painted came up with no lead in them, and only occasionally a slight tinge of the pink color on the surface itself that I was rubbing. The back of the flakes showed dark purple immediately. The result and color change was very quick and clear and the color change on the swab happened instantly. These are really good for this purpose and I would recommend them. I only now need to figure out what to do with the fact that I've got exposed lead paint on the outside of my house!

I bought these because a slightly less expensive brand gave me false positives. These swabs appear to be significantly more reliable and less likely to generate false positives.I tried a head-to-head test with city water, suburban water, and distilled water that I made myself with a home distiller.With the other swabs that are activated by water, I received a positive result from both city and suburban water. This occurred just by dipping the swabs in the water prior to testing for lead. Both city and suburban waters turned strongly pink and the distilled water remained yellow. The residue in the distiller was also strongly positive for lead with a strong magenta result.With these swabs, which are activated by white vinegar, all three waters remained yellow and there was no indication of lead.I also tested various non-ferrous metals with known compositions such as brass, bronze, and copper. All were negative, as they should be, with these swabs.With the other, water activated, swabs, several samples of these metals were falsely positive.Both types of swabs were strongly positive with known samples of lead.These swabs are accurate, according to my testing.

Deze gekocht omdat we veel verf moesten verwijderen in ons huis. We vermoede dat er lood in zat dus geprobeerd met deze wattenstaafjes te testen. Heel duidelijk was het resultaat niet waardoor je eigenlijk alleen maar meer onzeker bent. Hetgeen wat je juist wel wilt.

Moved into a older house around the era of when lead paint was used alot, that needed alot of work but we wanted to make sure the paint was lead free before we started work as with kids around we didn't want to risk it, super easy to use testing kit all we needed was white vinegar which we had and off we went, plenty of tests in the kit for the money, I'm sure it does say in the listing but make sure you test the back layer of paint (scrape a little off) we was lead free so gave away the remaining to a friend who used them and they tested positive which he knew about previous so definitely work also! They are a little on the expensive side for what they are but for the amount you get they are worth it, and you also can't put a price on your health

Lo compré para ver si unas sillas metálicas pintadas llevaban plomo. Probé primero con algo que sí llevaba plomo y lo detecta perfectamente.
