CHRONIC EFFECTS:
Prolonged inhalation of dusts containing crystalline silica may result in the development of a lung disease
known as silicosis.
NOTICE:
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
vapors may be harmful or fatal. Prolonged or repeated contact with skin may cause primary irritation,
dermatitis, or allergic skin reactions. This Product contains crystalline silica, which is considered a cancer
hazard by inhalation of respirable dust. The Internation Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC)
concluded that respirable crystalline silica inhaled in the form of quartz or cristobalite from occupational
sources is carcinogenic to humans (Group 10).
TARGET ORGANS;
Can be corrosive to shin.
Can cause respiratory tract irritation.
Can cause lung damage.
Can cause eye damage.
Can cause liver damage.
Can cause cancer. Risk of cancer depends on duration and level of exposure.
Can cause Gastrointestinal tract damage.
Can cause kidney damage.
Can cause nervous system effects.
Can cause skin sensitization.
OTHER:
This Product when mixed with other components acquires the hazards of all components.
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTRY:
Dermal and Inhalation.

PROPOSITION 65:
Pigments and/or other raw materials present in this product contain trace amounts of a chemical or chemicals
known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT:
Flush immediately with large amounts of clean water under low pressure for at least 15 minutes. Consult a
physician.
SKIN CONTACT:
Wash affected area with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Dispose of or launder accordingly.
Consult a physician if skin irritation persists.
INHALATION:
Remove affected individual to fresh air. Treat symptomatically. If breathing is difficult. administer oxygen. If
breathing' has stopped give artificial respiration. Consult a physician.
INGESTION:
Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute. Do not induce vomiting. Consult a physician or poison control center
IMMEDIATELY. Treat symptomatically.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
Exposure may aggravate Persons with eczema. skin sensitization. Or other chronic shin disorders and
allergies.
SECTION 5 - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
FIRE AND EXPLOSIVE PROPERTIES OF THE CHEMICAL:
Flammability Classification . . . . . :
Flash Point . . . . . . . . . . . . . : 78.0
Explosion Level . . . . . . . . . . . : Low - 1.0
High - -N/A
Flammability Limits . . . . . . . . . : Lower - -N/A
Higher - -N/A
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA:
Foam, carbon dioxide, and dry chemical.
FIRE-FIGHTING PROCEDURES AND EQUIPMENTS:
Keep away from heat, open flames, sparks, and areas where static charge may be generated. Do not
apply to hot surfaces due to possible fire and explosion risk. for closed containers, pressure build-up
and possible explosion might occur due to extreme heat exposure. Solvent vapors are heavier than
air and may travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash back. Water may be used to
cool un-ruptured containers. Wear self-contained breathing apparatus with a full face piece operated
in pressure demand or other positive pressure mode to prevent inhalation of hazardous
decomposition products. Use appropriate extinguishing media to control fire. Water may cause
violent frothing if sprayed directly into containers of burning liquid.
SECTION 6 - SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES
CLEAN-UP:
Remove all sources of ignition. Spills may be collected with inert, absorbent material for proper disposal. Use
non-sparking tools, Protective gloves, goggles and clothing, adequate ventilation, avoid the breathing of
vapors and use respiratory protective devices. Transfer absorbent material to suitable containers for proper
disposal.

SECTION 7 - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
HANDLING AND STORAGE:
Store in dry area. Keep closures tight and upright to prevent leakage. Do not store in high temperature areas
or near fire or open flame. Refer to product data sheet for recommended storage temperatures.
SPECIAL COMMENTS:
Prevent prolonged breathing of airborne contaminants such as vapor, spray mists, or dusts. Prevent contact
with skin and eyes. Do not take internally. Keep out of reach of children. Do not reuse or alter containers
without proper industrial cleaning. Do not weld or flame cut empty, un-cleaned containers due to potential fire
and explosion hazard. Consult Product data sheet for Proper application instructions.
SECTION 8 - SAFE HANDLING RND USE INFORMATION
HYGIENIC PRACTICES:
Wash hands and other contaminated skin areas with warm soap and water before eating.
EYE PROTECTION:
Use chemical resistant splash type Goggles.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION:
Respiratory Protective devices must be used when engineering and administration controls are not adequate to
maintain Threshold Limit Values (TLV) and Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) of airborne contaminants below
the listed values for those hazardous ingredients identified in Section II of this MSDS. Observe OSHA
regulations for respirator use (CFR 29, 1910.134) whenever a respirator is used. Particulate, chemical cartridge,
air Purifying half-mask respirators can be used within certain limitations; consult the respirator manufacturer for
specific uses and limitations. Where airborne contaminant concentrations are unknown, the use of a
NIOSH/MSHR approved fresh-air supplied respirator is mandatory.
OTHER PROTECTION:
Use Chemical resistant gloves.
Use chemical resistant coveralls or apron to protect against skin and clothing contamination.
Use Protective cream where skin contact is likely.
VENTILATION:
Sufficient ventilation, in volume and pattern, should be provided through both local and general exhaust to keep
the air contaminant concentration below current applicable OSHA Permissible Exposure Limits (PAL) and
ACGIH's Threshold Limit Values (TLV). Appropriate ventilation should be employed to remove hazardous
decomposition products formed during welding or flame cutting operations of surfaces coated with this product.
Heavier than air solvent vapors should be removed from lower levels of work area due to potential explosion
hazard and all ignition sources (non-explosion proof equipment) should be eliminated if flammable mixtures will
be encountered.
