Is there lead in your lawn furniture?

White lead (lead carbonate) is produced by directly dissolving metallic lead or dissolving lead oxide by the addition of acids. It is a white powder used as a white pigment in the manufacture of paints for outdoor use or as a stabilizing agent in the plastics industry. It is supplied either as a powder (dry white lead) or as a paste (white lead ground).
