SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE FROM:
INGESTION: Harmful if swallowed.
EYE CONTACT: Causes severe eye irritation.
SKIN CONTACT: May cause moderate irritation. May be absorbed through the skin.
INHALATION: Vapor and/or spray mist may be harmful if inhaled. Vapor irritates eyes, nose
and throat. Repeated exposure to high vapor concentrations may cause irritation of the
respiratory system and permanent brain and nervous system damage.
CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE: Avoid long-term and repeated contact. This product contains toluene.
Toluene inhalation in animals (greater than 1500 (ppm) and intentional inhalation of
toluene-containing products by humans (e.g. glue) has caused adverse fetal development
effects.
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Eye watering, headaches, nausea, dizziness, and loss of
coordination are indications that solvent levels are too high. Intentional misuse by
deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents can be harmful or fatal.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Not applicable..
WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
INGESTION: If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. Gently wipe out inside mouth to remove any
residual material.
EYE CONTACT: In case of eye contact, remove contact lenses and flush eyes immediately with a
gentle stream of luke warm water for at least 15 minutes
SKIN CONTACT: In case of skin contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes followed by washing with soap and water.
INHALATION: If affected by inhalation of vapor or spray mist, remove
to fresh air. Apply artificial respiration and other support measures as required.
OTHER: If ingestion, any type of overexposure or symptoms of overexposure occur during or
following the use of this product, contact a poison control center, emergency room or
physician immediately; have Material Safety Data Sheet information available.
SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
FLASHPOINT: 63 Degrees F (17 Degrees C) (PENSKY-MARTENS CLOSED CUP)
FLAMMABLE LIMITS: Lower explosion limit (LEL): 1.4
Upper explosion limit (UEL): Not available
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Class B extinguishers
(carbon dioxide, dry chemical, or universal aqueous film forming foam designed to extinguish
NFPA Class 1B flammable liquid fires.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Keep this product away from heat, sparks, flame, and
other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors, static electricity).
Invisible vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Do not smoke while
using this product. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Closed containers may
explode when overhead. Do not apply to hot surfaces. Toxic gasses may form when this
product comes in contact with extreme heat.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water spray may be ineffective. Water spray may be used to
cool closed containers to prevent pressure build-up and possible Autoignition or explosion
when exposed to extreme heat. If water is used, fog nozzles are preferable. Fire-fighters
should wear self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing.
SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURE
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OF SPILLED: Provide maximum ventilation. Only
personnel equipped with proper respiratory, skin, and eye protection should be permitted in
the area. Remove all sources of ignition. Take up spilled material with sand, vermiculite,
or other noncombustible absorbent material and place in clean, empty containers for disposal.
Only the spilled material and the absorbent should be placed in this container.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state,
provincial, and local environmental control regulations. Empty containers should be recycled
or disposed of through an approved waste management facility.
SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS: Do not store above 120 degrees F (48 degrees C.). Store
large quantities in buildings designed and protected for storage of NFPA Class 1B flammable
liquids.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Vapors may collect in low areas. If this material is part of a multiple
component system, read the Material Safety Data Sheet(s) for the other component or
components before blending as the resulting mixture may have the hazards of all of its parts.
Containers should be grounded when pouring. Avoid free fall of liquids in excess of a few
inches.
SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR:
EYE PROTECTION: Wear chemical-type splash goggles or full face shield when possibility exists
for eye contact due to splashing or spraying liquid, airborne particles, or vapors.
SKIN PROTECTION: Wear protective clothing to prevent skin contact. Apron and gloves should be
constructed of: neoprene rubber or nitrite rubber. No specific permeation/degradation
testing have been done on protective clothing for this product. Recommendations for skin
protection are based on infrequent contact with this product. For frequent contact or total
immersion, contact a manufacturer of protective clothing for appropriate chemical impervious
equipment.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Overexposure to vapors may be prevented by ensuring ventilation
controls, vapor exhaust or fresh air entry. NIOSH/MSHA-approved (TC-32C) air purifying or
air supplied (TC-19C) respirators may also reduce exposure. Read respirator manufacturer's
instructions and literature carefully to determine the type of airborne contaminants against
which the respirator is effective and how it is to be properly fitted.
OTHER EQUIPMENT: Clean contaminated clothing and shoes.
VENTILATION REQUIREMENTS: Provide general dilution or local exhaust ventilation in volume and
pattern to keep the concentration of ingredients listed in Section 2 below the lowest
suggested exposure limits, the LEL below the stated limit, and to remove decomposition
products during welding or flame cutting.
