SECTION IV - FIRE & EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
FLASH POINT: 80EF METHOD USED: Seta flash
FLAMMABLE LIMITS IN AIR BY VOLUME
LOWER: 0.9% UPPER: 7.9%
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Application to hot surfaces
requires special precautions. Full protective equipment including self-contained breathing
apparatus should be used. Water spray may be ineffective. If water is used, fog nozzles are
preferable. Water may be used to cool containers to prevent a pressure build-up.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: FOAM, ALCOHOL FOAM, CO2, DRY CHEMICAL
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES:
During emergency conditions overexposure to decomposition products may cause a health
hazard. Symptoms may not be immediately apparent. Obtain medical attention. Keep
containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, sparks and open flames.
SECTION V - REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable CONDITIONS TO AVOID: High temperatures
INCOMPATIBILITY (MATERIALS TO AVOID): Oxidizing materials
HAZARDOUS DECOMPOSITION OR BY PRODUCTS: May produce hazardous fumes
when heated to decomposition as in welding.
HAZARDOUS POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.

SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Anesthetic, excessive inhalation can cause irritation of the respiratory tract or acute nervous
system depression characterized by headache, dizziness, staggering gait, confusion,
unconsciousness, coma and even asphyxiation.
SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Skin: Moderate irritation, defatting, dermatitis. May be a sensitizer in some individuals.
Eyes: Severe irritation, redness, tearing, blurred vision. May be a sensitizer in some individuals.
SKIN ABSORPTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Liquid can be absorbed through the skin resulting in symptoms similar to inhalation effects
above.
CARCINOGENICITY
NTP: No IARC MONOGRAPH: No OSHA REGULATED: No
INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Aspiration into the lungs during
ingestion or vomiting may cause mild to severe pulmonary injury and possibly even death.
HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC)
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with
permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating
and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATE BY EXPOSURE
Exposure to petroleum solvents may aggravate preexisting dermatitis.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Skin: Wash affected areas with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Consult a
physician if needed.
Eyes: Flush immediately with large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes. Take to a
physician for medical treatment.
Ingestion: Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute. Do not induce vomiting. Get medical help
immediately.

SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Remove all sources of ignition (flame, hot surfaces, electrical, static or frictional sparks). Avoid
breathing vapors. Ventilate the area. Contain and remove with inert absorbent and non-sparking
tools.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE
Do not store above 120E F. Store large quantities only in buildings designed to comply with
OSHA 1910.106. Keep closures tight and the container upright to prevent leakage. Do not store
or use near heat, sparks or flame. Never use pressure to empty. A drum must not be washed out
or used for other purposes. Drums of this material should be grounded when pouring.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
Dispose of in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Incinerate in approved facility
only. Do not incinerate a closed container.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
Do not get in eyes. Avoid skin contact. Can cause allergic respiratory reaction. Can cause
allergic skin reaction. Prevent prolonged or repeated breathing of vapors or spray mist. Avoid
breathing of sanding dust. Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly. Wash skin thoroughly with
soap and water after handling. Close the container after each use. Do not transfer this product to
unlabeled containers. Do not handle until the manufacturer's safety precautions have been read
and understood. Keep out of reach of children.

SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Use NIOSH-approved respirator to prevent overexposure, when exposure exceeds occupational
exposure limits (SECTION II). Use either an atmosphere-supplying respirator or an air-purifying
respirator for organic vapors in compliance with 29 CFR 1910.134, with provision for mist
removal of conditions so indicate.
VENTILATION
All application areas should be ventilated in accordance with OSHA regulation 29 CFR 1910.94,
1910.107, 1910.108. Remove decomposition products formed during welding or flame cutting
on surfaces coated with this product. If baking, vent fumes.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES
Recommended.
EYE PROTECTION
Safety eye wear including splash guards or side shields recommended.
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT
Use protective outer wear and prevent prolonged skin contact with contaminated clothing.
WORK/HYGIENIC PRACTICES
Avoid breathing vapors and contact with skin. Wash skin thoroughly before breaks and meals
and at the end of work periods.
