No. Its almost impossible to get any paint that contains lead these days. It was banned from being used in paint in 1978.
Older plaster walls may contain lead-based paint, which was commonly used before the 1970s. Lead-based paint can be found in layers of paint on the plaster walls. It is important to test for lead before attempting to remove or disturb the walls.
lead-based paint covering the walls & exteroir of homes
Homes built in the US before 1976 may have been painted with a lead based paint. homes built after that time should not have been, although older supplies may have been used for a time. The date, if any, at whcih lead paint was forbidden for use in homes in other countries will vary. Lead is a toxic material that interfers with development of nerve and brain tissue in children. Any person who absorbes an excessive amount of lead may suffer from anemia and may experience nerve dameage. Because children are smaller and are growing rapidly, they are susseptable to damage after absorbing smaller amounts of lead. Because young children are likely to chew on paint chips, they are more likely than other members of a family to absorb significant amounts of lead and suffer harm from lead paint in a home, especially if the paint is pealing and easilly chipped. Anyone who uses flame to "burn off" leaded paint from painted surfaces, or who uses grinders or power sanders to remove leaded paint may also be exposed to the lead unless proper precautions are taken.
Many children have developed lead poisoning by eating the flaking lead-based paint often found in older buildings.
Lead is the element that is famous for its yellow paint pigment, known as lead(II) chromate or chrome yellow. Despite its vibrant color and durability, the use of lead-based pigments in paint has been phased out due to its toxic effects on human health and the environment.
