6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
6.1 Spills:
Before cleaning any spill or leak, individuals involved in spill cleanup must wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment.
For small spills (e.g., <1 gallon) wear appropriate personal protective equipment (e.g., goggles, gloves). Maximize ventilation (open doors and windows)
and secure all sources of ignition. Remove spilled material with absorbent material and place into appropriate closed container(s) for disposal. Dispose
of properly in accordance with local, state and federal regulations. Wash all affected areas and outside of container with plenty of warm water and
soap. Remove any contaminated clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse.
For spills 1 gallon, deny entry to all unprotected individuals. Dike and contain spill with inert material (e.g., sand or earth). Use ONLY non-sparking tools
for recovery and cleanup. Transfer liquid to containers for recovery or disposal and solid diking material to separate containers for proper disposal.
Remove contaminated clothing promptly and wash affected skin areas with soap and water. Keep spills and cleaning runoffs out of municipal sewers
and open bodies of water.

General mechanical ventilation (e.g., fans) and local exhaust ventilation is recommended for use with this product.
8.2 Respiratory Protection:
Respirators are not required for use with this product. However, this product is a nuisance dust hazard. Product may cause irritation of
the mouth, nose, throat, and lungs. Accordingly, a dust mask is suggested. A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA's 29
CFR ?910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever a respirator is used.
8.3 Eye Protection:
As a minimum, safety glasses with side shields should be used when using this product.
8.4 Hand Protection:
None required under normal conditions of use. However, may cause skin irritation in some sensitive individuals.
When handling large quantities (e.g., 1 gallon), wear rubber or plastic impervious gloves.
