New doesn't
mean safe.

HomeGoods, Marshalls, TJ Maxx, Ross. Closeout dinnerware from importers the FDA does not pre-test. The leach-test rule exists. The enforcement does not. One drip and a 365 nm light tells you which mugs in your kitchen are leaking lead into hot coffee.

002 · who built this

I'm Eric. I built Fluoro-Spec because most of the early swab buyers already had poisoned kids.

Six years working with lead. The first version sold on Amazon swab-strip style. Then I read the emails. Parent after parent telling me they only started looking after a blood test came back at 6, 8, 12 µg/dL. they were buying a test to confirm a poisoning, not prevent one. That wasn't the business I wanted.

So I rebuilt it as a real chemistry kit. Methylammonium bromide in isopropanol, the same reagent labs have used for a decade. One drip, one 365 nm light, glow means lead. You can run it on the mug in your hand right now and know the answer before the next sip.

Daniella ran it on her plates after a 3.4 µg/dL pediatrician call. Dr. Jessica (md, mother) ran it on her sons' room and found exterior paint dust drifting in through a window. Both kids undetectable in months. The kit is a flashlight, not a verdict. You find the source, you remove the source, the body clears.

003 · the one thing
Nothing in your house was ever tested for what you actually care about.

The FDA's leach-test action levels (3.0 µg/mL flatware, 0.5 µg/mL cups & mugs) are on paper. The FDA does not pre-test imports. They rely on importer self-certification, and follow up only after harm. Test reports get recycled, photoshopped, or quietly purchased. There is no centralized registry. There is no chain-of-custody. If it that's true, the only number that matters is the one you can measure yourself, on your own dishes, today.

Verified buyers. Their own kitchens. Real lead.

10/10, found cups my kids were using had lead.

Even Lenox Temperware had lead.

007 · the close

The only honest questions left.

"my dishes are fine, this is fearmongering."

I hope so. That is the result we want. You spend $50 once, run every painted mug and plate, find nothing, and the question is settled. The kit either rules lead out or finds it. Either answer is worth $50 versus not knowing.

"swab tests already exist and they're cheaper."

Swabs change color on lead and a few other things. Fluoro-Spec uses perovskite quantum-dot fluorescence specific to lead. No false positives from rust, soap, pigment. Peer-reviewed in analytica chimica acta 2024. You read it with a UV light, the same way labs do, just in a bottle.

"do you sell my data?"

No. Ever. one-click unsubscribe on every email. The only thing we do with your address is send you the Download Pack and a five-email arc that walks you through the playbook. That is it.

"what if I find lead and don't know what to do?"

That is exactly what the playbook is for. If you want a human, call 631-461-1838 or reply to any email I send. I answer most of them myself.

One drip. One light. One honest answer. Then you decide what stays in your kitchen.

ps · from Eric

If you run the kit and find lead, send me a photo. The ones that land in the inbox are the ones that keep me building this. And if you already have a friend with a baby on the way, forward this page. That is who I wrote it for.

P.p.s. The Download Pack is the start of a short email arc, not a sales firehose. Five emails over five days, the first one ten minutes from now. You can leave any time and you keep the PDF.
