Leaded paint?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone know for sure if the paint GM used on 47-54 trucks was leaded? I was going to sandblast my panel and prep them for paint, but don't want to send lead airborne...

Thanks!

I believe that almost everything was leaded back then. That's what made paint shiney.
