Second Line Frames sought to bring something beautiful out of a tragedy and also help support the rebuilding in New Orleans after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina.
They used wood siding salvaged from the homes destroyed by the hurricane to make unique and colorful wood frames. However to ensure they were safe from any lead, they needed a clear way to encapsulate them.
LeadX™ gave them an excellent solution and was easily painted over the frames without changing the beautiful look and vibrant colors.
The company name “Second Line” Frames comes from “a timeless New Orleans tradition – the colorful parade that follows a funeral procession to turn tragedy into a celebration of rebirth”. A portion of the sales went to assist in the rehabilitation of the hurricane affected neighborhoods.
