I have an behind the times wooden door from a very aged home that I want to restore somewhat and use for decor in my home. It looks really cool to me right presently but the paint is chipping all over-which I am sure that funds its lead based-right? Can I paint a clear coat over it to protect my children again organize poisoning or what?
Dealing near clothes clutter?

Be well.
