ECOBOND® Lead Defender® is specially formulated with patented lead

treatment reagents made with food-grade additives to take advantage of the

natural binding properties with lead. This proprietary blend provides

advanced human bioavailability reduction, in case of accidental ingestion of

the treated lead paint dust and chips.*

Third party independently documented test results utilizing US EPA method

confirming the effectiveness of ECOBOND® in protecting human health.

ECOBOND® Lead Defender®’s patented lead sealant and treatment formula

contains an advanced technology that seals and treats the lead and lead dust

in lead-based paint. The formula includes lead treatment reagents, paint

penetrators and high quality water based paint providing up to a 95%

Facts: New data reveals: up to 80% of structures in the US contain lead based

paint

1 in 38 children ages 1-5 in America are currently affected by lead

poisoning

Homeowners have several options for dealing with lead based paint; the trick is

11 Frequently Asked Questions: 1. How does it work?

ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® works by not only sealing but treating the

lead.

This is a powerful concept! Our patented formula chemically converts the lead in

lead paint and lead dust into a non-hazardous, more eco-friendly format!

This proprietary process includes softening and penetrating while virtually

eliminating leaching and it also suppresses lead dust to improve worker and

occupant safety during any renovation or future wear.

2. So now I don't have to abide by lead safe practices, right?

ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® encourages lead safe practice compliance for

worker and occupant safety. Although ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® is

known to safely treat lead and assist in non-hazardous disposal of lead waste we

remain strong advocates of local and or state lead Renovation Repair Painting

rule (RRP) lead safe worker compliance.

3. So now the lead is gone right?

Currently there is no known product to eliminate the total lead-count on any

substrate without complete removal. However, ECOBOND® - LEAD

DEFENDER® seals and treats lead and lead paint dust by up to 99% while at the

same time, reduces lead hazards by up to 95%!

The best decision is to seal and treat lead paint with ECOBOND®- LEAD

DEFENDER®. By treating you are suppressing any harmful dust particulates or

chips at the same time reducing the bio-availability to those workers and or

inhabitants. Now includes Bitrex® a bitter-tasting additive to discourage oral

contact!

4. What do you mean when you say treat?

After application, ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® reduces the lead

bioavailability by up to 75% and chemically converts lead and lead paint dust

with natural reagents. You can simply paint over the lead hazard with other

options, but when you seal & treat it at the same time with ECOBOND® - LEAD

DEFENDER®, you lock up harmful leaching. This gives you stable, non-

hazardous, eco-friendly waste disposal upon removal.

5. Is it a paint or what?

ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® is a high quality, fully washable acrylic latex

paint and preferred primer able to easily accept most top and/or finish

coats. ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® has a patented eco-friendly low VOC,

water based formula that can be brushed, rolled, or sprayed. Volatile organic

compounds (VOC) are organic chemical compounds whose composition makes

it possible for them to evaporate under normal indoor atmospheric conditions of

temperature and pressure. While ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® dries to

the touch in 8 hours as most latex paints, it also works as a lead treatment

alternative that simply just does not cover lead, it literally treats lead paint and

lead paint dust particulates.

6. So you're an encapsulant right?

ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® is allowed for use in all 50 states as Lead

Paint Interim Control (42 USC 63A 4851b(13)), check your local

requirements. ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® is not like encapsulants

because with application it softens, penetrates and treats lead and lead dust

hazards. ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® has been successfully used for ten

(10) years with its proven ability to successfully treat lead to United States EPA

lead standard. http://www.EcobondPaint.com

Why simply cover lead when lead and lead paint dust can be treated with simple

and easy-to-use leave-on applications?

Think about safety: if lead based paint chips that are treated with ECOBOND®-

LEAD DEFENDER® are accidentally ingested, due to the natural reagents within

the ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® formula, it has more of an opportunity to

pass through the body. This is because the technology reduces the bioavailability

of the lead by up to 75%! (although your results may vary based on your specific

paint conditions)

Now includes Bitrex® a bitter-tasting additive to discourage oral contact! Can an

encapsulant do that?

7. Why would I put ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® on and then remove

it?

ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® renders lead waste as non-hazardous for

disposal.

This saves contractors untold amounts of money in hazardous disposal fees (EPA

Page 8: ECOBOND® - irp-cdn.multiscreensite.com · ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® encourages lead safe practice compliance for worker and occupant safety. Although ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER®

1311). At the same time, it reduces airborne hazardous lead dust particulates.

This helps to conform to proper air monitoring requirements. ECOBOND®-

LEAD DEFENDER® aids in removal by safely sealing lead and lead paint dust

prior to removal on numerous structures, both interior and exterior. Although

we are typically the same price per gallon as an encapsulant, our coverage rate is

300/ft. per gallon. In reality, ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® costs up to about

$.25/sf as compared to more than $2.00/sf for typical encapsulants.

(The hidden fact is that most encapsulants only cover 150 ft. per gallon making

them twice the cost, often requires 2 coats….AND THEY DON’T EVEN TREAT!!)

8. Are you EPA/HUD Certified?

ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® has been tested using EPA standard test

practices and is currently used in all 50 states as an “interim control alternative”

to encapsulants.

Our efforts to safely seal and treat lead rather than simply covering it, sets us

apart. Both contractors and do it yourself homeowners like yourself, appreciate

this solution in lead safe removal for yourself and family.

Who else trusts ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® ?

We are proud that we are carried by Home Depot, they put their respect and

confidence in our brand, and you should too!

9. Is it a primer or top coat?

ECOBOND® Lead Defender® can be used as an All-in-One interior primer, lead

sealant and top coat, or as an exterior primer and lead sealer prior to application

of standard exterior topcoat which better resists acid-rain! It is ideal for home,

office, commercial facilities, schools, Industrial factories, and DOT structures.

Testing is always a good idea before-hand.

10. Will a lead reading still show up on the XRF Gun?

Without complete removal, lead will always be present. With ECOBOND®-

LEAD DEFENDER® ’s treatment capabilities, the end-user can feel confident in

applying a product that doesn’t merely cover lead!

It‘s common during complete removal, that lead sometimes migrates into the

wood or substrate regardless. Using ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® safely

seals those hazards.

11. Does ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® work as a stripper?

ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® can be used conjunctly with the use of a

stripper whereby both stripper, ECOBOND®- LEAD DEFENDER® and lead

hazard can all be removed and rendered non-hazardous for disposal. This will

save money and eliminates the need to dispose of hazardous waste material.

Use ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® to seal and treat lead dust and lead

paint prior to component removal. Through proper application of ECOBOND® -

LEAD DEFENDER®, removed and collected solid waste will typically provide

eco-friendly disposal as non-hazardous for lead. As disposal and sampling

requirements vary by state and locality, check with your local agencies for

additional requirements.

Clients Say!

"Just thought I would give you an update as to our progress here in Marietta Ohio

at the City Hall Building Lead Paint Project. So far all of our lab work for lead has

come back as “non-detect” and free of any leaching; therefore, I am really excited in

the outcome of your product! It has maintained its integrity with the issues we

were having as far as the lead levels in the demolition process and we are now

getting ready for the disposal of the waste. Much better than I had anticipated. I

have to say I am impressed! Thanks for all your assistance."

Elizabeth Matteson; EHS Instructor & Safety Specialist

What Our

Clients Say!

“The first time we used your ECOBOND®-

LEAD DEFENDER® product was for the

demolition of a several story, railroad signal

tower in metropolitan New York. The coatings on the steel were very

thick and had a very high lead concentration. Shortly after applying

just a coat or two of the ECOBOND® product, we were able to

readily abate the old coatings to reveal bright metal, without any

significant dust or ambient air lead concentrations. In fact, all of

the numerous layers of paint came off as if they were a single coat.

This product works, as advertised, and dramatically

reduces potential lead exposure for workers and the public alike.”

Timothy P. Casamento, P.E.; Vice-President

Ahern Painting Contractors, Inc.

"One coat was enough. It even looks good on its own without further covering.

And it's easy to clean up after because it's a latex paint. Once the ECOBOND® -

LEAD DEFENDER® was applied and it dried thoroughly (24-48 hours), I put on a

top coat of a premium latex semi-gloss white. It now shines and looks fantastic. I

am using it to cover all the trim/moldings in my home. It bonded so well with the

topcoat; I think it could serve as a great primer for any paint job, even if you were

not interested in just covering lead paint. I am definitely impressed with this

product and would recommend it without reservation.”

Clients Say!

“I had purchased this product from the manufacturer 2 or 3 year ago

and my painting contractor continues to use it on historic properties.

This product actually penetrates lead paint and chemically changes it

to lead phosphate which is harmless. When faced with building

scaffolding, wrapping (multiple times) a 3 story Victorian with

specially EPA approved plastic, and multiple hazmat suits for

painters, this was definitely the only option for me. It's a good idea if

you're a diy'er and have lead paint, use this product. If you're a

contractor working where EPA agents can give you a nearly $40,000

fine, this stuff is priceless. It's also priceless for your customer when

compared to EPA approved paint abatement.”

E. Grant, Louisville, KY

“It [ECOBOND® - LEAD DEFENDER® ] goes

“We tried this on a 3bd/2ba 1940s fix-up with some lead paint and

mildew concerns and it worked great on both the interior and

exterior. When we opened the pails, there was some separation with

a thick base and about a half inch of liquid on top, but it mixed out

well and applied easily. The ECOBOND covered the walls really well

and accepted the satin topcoat well with no streaks or bleeding

through. We also were planning to contract for exterior vinyl siding,

but it was easier to prime with ECOBOND and paint with Behr

ourselves.”

Executive Overview

Lead paint is reportedly found in approximately 60% of all structures in the US and increases to over 80% in the major population centers. Lead presents a major hazard and risk to children, families and workers who come in contact with lead based paint. Historically, options for dealing with lead paint have been expensive, complicated and limited to either removal or encapsulation, which is why lead paint remains a major challenge despite its sale being discounted in 1978. A new option is now available – ECOBOND LBP, LLC (ECOBOND) is dedicated to protecting workers, children, families and the environment with our line of specialty paint products designed to address the hazards of lead dust and lead based paint in an easy to use, safe, and environmentally protective water-based paint formulation. A comprehensive scientific study was recently conducted to summarize the successful 10 year performance record and provide independent validation ECOBOND® LBP’s ability to seal and treat lead paint hazards under the wide variety of lead paint remediation activities. Lead paint hazards included lead dust, peeling and chipping lead paint, and multiple layers of lead paint for both interior and exterior applications. The lead paint materials selected for testing were specifically selected for their multiple layers of lead paint and unusually high lead concentrations; proving ECOBOND® LBPs robust capabilities. Testing was conducted by an independent laboratory following US EPA test methods. This case study provides a summary of typical use scenarios, test results, and conclusions. Section A describes six (6) typical lead paint scenarios. Section B provides independent analytical test data obtained from a US EPA NELAC-certified laboratory; and Section C provides conclusions and recommendations.

Overview

Health Effects of Lead http://www2.epa.gov/sites/production/files/documents/pyf_brochure_landscape_b_w_1-16-13.pdf

Lead affects the body in many ways. It is important to know that even exposure to low levels of lead can severely harm children. In children, exposure to lead can cause:

• Nervous system and kidney damage • Learning disabilities, attention deficit disorder, and decreased

intelligence • Speech, language, and behavior problems • Poor muscle coordination • Decreased muscle and bone growth • Hearing damage

While low-lead exposure is most common, exposure to high amounts of lead can have devastating effects on children, including seizures, unconsciousness, and, in some cases, death.

Although children are especially susceptible to lead exposure, lead can be dangerous for adults, too. In adults, exposure to lead can cause:

• Harm to a developing fetus • Increased chance of high blood pressure during pregnancy • Fertility problems (in men and women) • High blood pressure • Digestive problems • Nerve disorders • Memory and concentration problems • Muscle and joint pain

Section B: EPA Test Procedure Analytical Results – ECOBOND® LBP ECOBOND® LBP has been used for nearly 10 years on thousands of commercial and heavy industrial projects and more recently for residential properties. The ability of ECOBOND® LBP to seal and treat lead dust and lead in paint, including peeling and chipping paint as well as prior to lead paint component removal has been extensively tested utilizing EPA test methods (EPA 1311). The following table presents test results from this study examining multiple use scenarios for various lead paint coated materials for lead treatment and relative lead bioavailability (EPA 9200.1-86).

Note: To test the robust treatment capabilities of ECOBOND® LBP, test material selected contained extremely high lead levels of 60,000 – 100,000 mg/kg; typical residential lead levels average 10,000 – 40,000 mg/kg. Also provided below is an example of ECOBOND® LBP treatment results for typical residential lead levels with application of one coat of ECOBOND® LBP at 8 mils wet; confirming ECOBOND® LBP treatment results well below RCRA TCLP limit of 5.0 mg/l.
