I always mention 9" x 9"s, but seldom say anything about 12" x 12"s. Lesson learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neal Lewis Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 Here's a website with a catalogue of all asbestos tiles produced, with pictures. Good info. Seems the 12 x 12 were mostly commerical. http://www.asbestosresource.com/asbestos/tile.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 If it's older tile I just tell 'em to assume that the tile and the adhesive both contain asbestos; and, if they want to know for sure send samples to a lab for testing. I tell tham that if they do that and a test turns out positive, make sure they are careful not to grind the stuff up into fine powder and then snort it, 'cuz if they do they might end up with asbestosis or mesothelioma about a quarter of a century later. Older folks chuckle; younger folks not so much. Guess younger folks' sense of humor isn't as refined as that of us old geezers. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!!
