scrapping stippled artex

[calvey]

I have always taken of the high points before skimming and i am worried about the asbestos that i may have disturbed?

 

[beddy]

ok

 

[PhilPlaster]

right you are then ;D

if you smoke, drink, eat fried food or mix multi finish without wearing a dustmask the amount and type of asbestos in artex shouldn't be a worry.

 

[Capital spread]

The asbestos content in artex is 0.02 % so it is very low.
Saying that it only takes 1 particle to lodge in your lungs and in thirty years time your toast.

I don't known any spreads who have had asbestosis but I know plenty with bad backs,knees,elbows, hips,
skin problems etc.

People who worked with asbestos all day every day got problems and not all of them.

Scrapeing the odd ceiling for 10 minutes will do f*ck all.

Which poisoning do you want then ?

there's asbestos in the atmosphere, so everyone is breathing it in every day. if you wear a mask you'll be slightly protected. however it will still be in the air as well as on your clothes and anything in the room. every time you move it will circulate around the room. so the only thing you can do to not come in contact is to not to the job in the first place. a small bit of exposure probably not do you any more harm then what you've already been exposed to. if you done it every day and there was loads then you'd be in the s**t
