Lightbulb Re: Asbestos ceiling tiles

As an Asbestos Inspector let me say a couple of things, first only testing can tell you for sure if a tile has asbestos or not; second there are a couple of tiles doesn't matter what sixe 12 x12, 24 x 24, 24 x 48 that usually will test positive for asbestos one has a red coating on the back and the other has five hole pattern similar to the Chrysler logo. It also does'nt matter if they are stapled, glued or drop in type. Alot of times the glued tiles are not positive but the glue dots are positive so it all goes back to having them tested.
