*WARNINGS & Conditions:
Lead Warning:
Melting lead and casting lead objects will expose you and others in the area to lead, which is known to cause birth defects, other reproductive harm and cancer. Discharging firearms in poorly ventilate areas, cleaning firearms or handling ammunition may result in exposure to lead and other substances known to cause birth defects, reproductive harm and other serious physical injury. Have adequate ventilation at all times. Exposure risk can be reduced, but not eliminated, with strong ventilation. Activities such as: Firearms cleaning, discharging firearms, bullet casting, ammunition handling, reloading, gunsmithing, melting lead, handling lead, handling anything that came in contact with lead or lead residue, being around lead dust or oxides can all be harmful to your health. Lead and many other gun-related substances are known to the State of California to cause birth defects, reproductive harm and other serious physical injury. Lead contamination in the air, in the dust, and on your skin is invisible. Keep children and pregnant women or women who may become pregnant clear of the area during use and until cleanup is complete and all traces of lead and or items that may be contaminated are removed and properly secured. Wash hands immediately after use of these products before eating/smoking and carefully clean all surfaces and floors with a vacuum cleaner equipped with a HEPA filter or disposable wipes, after lead dust has had a chance to settle. Remove and launder clothing after completing firearm related activities. Never eat, drink, smoke or apply cosmetics during firearm-related activities. Provide adequate ventilation as airborne contamination is extremely dangerous, be sure vent exhaust does not enter other inhabited areas or re-enter work area.
