Lead Test Kit - [10] Pre-Activated Swabs - Rapid Testing Kit for Lead Detection | Sealable Bag | Tests Wood Metals Plastics and More | No External Indgredients Required (10)

I used this for testing glassware and ceramics I also purchased from amazon, I didn't have any lead to actually verify they're working properly but I'm assuming it would work.

I bought this kit to test an old 40-year carpet and its adhesive on my back porch for lead. I had already tested for asbestos with an asbestos test kit. This lead kit was very inexpensive, quick and easy to use and since I had 10test tips, I double checked my results. What a relief. Now I know that I can safely remove this old carpet! Thanks, seller!

Works fast. Simple to use.

Easy to use and worked well

This product works well and good sensitivity to the presence of lead (I have no quantitative sensitivity (ppm) data). Some people might have some difficulty to use it. The pink end of the tip must break off to release the Acetic Acid + Distilled water buffer solution into the white end of the swab. The break point is about two thirds the way down from the top of the pink end. When the Sodium Rhodizonate is activated at the proper ph level it turns Yellow to a White-Yellow color (see picture). When it comes in contact with Lead the solution turns red to purple color depending on the concentration of Lead. This test is a well known and common forensic test for lead used in crime scene investigations.
