I just know in 1978 they stopped using lead base paint. I don't know about anything else. Look at the manufacturer's name, address, phone etc. and try to contact them and find out. Let us know.

I like this forum, I see not too many people seem to use this forum. I hope it picks up. Don't you?

I enjoy painting acrylic and flowers especially. I have painted a lot of ornaments this Christmas.
Good luck on your paint search. Grama

Hi Grama,
That's a great idea, thanks a lot.

I've never been to this forum before till today. I'm usually over on the gardning forums but I'm learning my way around THS and posted on "buying and selling a home" last year when we sold a rental house.

I do enjoy painting and I'm always looking for something I can smear some paint on.

I love gardenweb and freak out when my ISP is down, Lol. That only happens when we get a bad storm or high winds.

Hi again,
I just spoke to a representative at Red Devil and he said that the paint is non-toxic. He went on to say that I if the child were to actually "eat" the paint, he couldn't make any promises. That sounds reasonable to me and can be said about many things that a child might inadvertantly chew on.

Thanks for the advice!
