Lead paint testing for kids imports
What to send the lab
- Finished samples with all colors and print layers represented.
- Clear map of coated vs uncoated components.
- Factory paint spec and supplier certificates (supporting info, not a CPC substitute).
CPC citations
Cite both Part 1303 and CPSIA Section 101 when both apply. Mismatch between report headings and CPC rule list is a top Amazon rejection reason.

Questions people ask
Is unleaded brass still tested for paint?
Substrate lead (CPSIA 101) is separate from coating lead (1303). Metal jewelry and hardware often need substrate testing even without paint.
Can XRF screening replace lab testing?
Screening helps factories; CPC requires CPSC-accepted third-party testing for regulated children’s product rules.
