OTHER PRECAUTIONS
Employees should be trained in safety measures that should be taken when using this product.
===================== SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES ======================
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Avoid breathing vapors or spray mist. Wear a properly fitted respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA (TC-23c) for use with
paints during application and until all vapors are exhausted. In confined areas, or where continuous spray operations
are typical, or proper respirator fit is not possible, wear a positive-pressure supplied air respirator (TC-19c). In all
cases follow respirator manufactures directions for respirator use. Do not allow anyone without protection into the
painting area.
VENTILATION
Provide sufficient ventilation to keep contaminates below applicable OSHA requirements.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES
Neoprene gloves impervious to organic solvents are recommended.
EYE PROTECTION
Use safety eyewear designed to protect against liquid splash.
