Question Volvo 240 Lead in Paint?

Doing some bodywork that requires me to sand the paint. Its a 1990/1991 (late 1990) model 240 wagon with a blue/green colo (421 is the paint code I think). Does anyone know if there is lead present in the paint?

Kind regards,

you should be good to sand. Lead paint was banned in the US in 1978.
