If two surfaces or materials, such as a wall and baseboard, are painted the same color, it does not guarantee they are coated with the same paint. Lead content can differ between materials, even when the colors appear identical. To ensure accurate testing and reliable results, we recommend selecting a quantity that matches the number of different surfaces or materials you plan to test.
