Just finished up a big lead encapsulation job on a condo in Dorchester, MA. All the natural wood had varnish that contained lead. We did one coat of stain blocker, two coats of Lead Stop encapsulate and one coat of finish paint.
Here are some Before and After photos of the job.

I Have never used Lead out! As far as Lead Stop check with your local hardware store some places carry it! It's a very thick product and has a grain in it. We actually had to remove the filter from the spray gun to spray. It left a sand finish on the trim which we had to scuff before the finish coat. All in All it was decent and the lead test passed which was the most important thing.
