Special Fire Fighting Procedures : Full emergency equipment with self-contained breathing apparatus and
full protective clothing should be worn by fire fighters. During a fire, irritating and/ or toxic gases and
smoke (See Reactivity Data) may be present from decomposition/ combustion. Isolate from heat,
electrical equipment, sparks and open flame. Closed container may explode when exposed to extreme
heat. Use cold water to cool fire exposed containers to minimize risk of rupture. Solvent vapors may be
heavier than air. Stagnant air may cause vapors to accumulate and travel along the ground to an ignition
source which may result in a flash back to the source of the vapors.
Section V - Health Hazard Data
Threshold Limit Value - See Section II
Route of entry: Inhalation; Skin contact; Eye contact.
Human Effects and Symptoms of Overexposure
Acute Inhalation- Solvent vapors are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat, and respiratory tract resulting in
red, itchy eyes, dryness of the throat and tightness in the chest. Other possible symptoms of overexposure
include headache, nausea, narcosis, fatigue, and loss of appetite.
Chronic Inhalation- Chronic exposure to organic solvents has been associated with various neurotic
effects including permanent brain and nervous system damage. Symptoms include: loss of memory, loss
of intellectual ability and loss of coordination.
Acute Skin Contact- Repeated or prolonged skin contact with solvents can result in dry, defatted, and
cracked skin causing increased susceptibility to infection. In addition, skin irritation (i.e. redness,
swelling), which may develop into dermatitis, may occur from skin contact. Solvents can
penetrate the skin and may cause systemic effects similar to those identified under acute inhalation
symptoms.
Chronic Skin Contact-Chronic skin exposure to solvents may cause effects similar to those identified
under Chronic Inhalation Effects.
Acute Eye Contact- Liquid, aerosols, and vapors of this product are irritating and can cause tearing,
reddening and swelling of the eye. If left untreated, corneal damage can occur and injury is slow to heal.
However, damage is usually reversible. See Section VI for treatment.
166 Part A Pigmented, Page 3 of 5
Section V - Health Hazard Data (Cont'd)
Chronic Eye Contact- Prolonged vapor contact may cause conjunctivitis.
Acute Ingestion- Can result in irritation and possible corrosive action in the mouth, stomach tissue and
digestive tract. Vomiting may cause aspiration of the solvent resulting in chemical pneumonitis.
Chronic Ingestion- None found.
Carcinogenicity- NTP: not listed
IARC: not listed
OSHA: not regulated
Medical Conditions Aggravated by Exposure : None known
Exposure Limits: Not established for product as a whole. Refer to Section II for exposure limits of
hazardous constituents.
Emergency and First Aid Procedures
Eye Contact- Flush with clean, lukewarm water (low pressure) for at least 15 minutes, while lifting
eyelids. Obtain medical attention if irritation persists.
Skin Contact - Remove contaminated clothing immediately. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water.
Wash contaminated clothing thoroughly before reuse.
Ingestion - Do not induce vomiting. Do not give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Consult a
physician.
Inhalation - Move to an area free from risk of further exposure. Administer oxygen or artificial
respiration as needed. Obtain medial attention.
Section VI - Employee Protection
Eye Protection Requirements... Safety glasses, splash goggles or face shield. Contact lenses should not
be worn.
Skin Protection Requirements... Chemical resistant gloves. Cover as much of the exposed area as
possible with appropriate clothing.
Respirator/Ventilation Requirements... Exhaust ventilation sufficient to keep the airborne
concentrations of the solvents below their respective TLVs. A respirator that is recommended or
approved for use in organic vapor containing environments (air purifying or fresh air supplied) may be
necessary. In spray applications an organic vapor/particulate respirator or air supplied air unit is
necessary. The use of a positive pressure supplied air respirator is mandatory when: airborne
concentrations are not known; when levels are 10 times the appropriate TLV; or if spraying is performed
in a confined space or area with limited ventilation. Take into account other materials being used
concurrently, the type of application and environmental concentrations when selecting a respirator.
Observe OSHA regulations for respirator use (29 CFR 1910.134).
Additional Protective Measures... Safety showers and eyewash stations should be available. Educate
and train employees in safe use of product. Follow all label instructions.

Section VII - Reactivity Data
Stability .......................................................... Stable under normal conditions
Hazardous Decomposition Products............... By Fire: CO, CO2
Hazardous Polymerization.............................. Will not occur
Incompatibilities............................................. Avoid contact with strong alkalizing agents
Section VIII - Spill or Leak Procedures
If Material is Spilled : Evacuate nonessential personnel. Remove all sources of ignition and ventilate the
area. Equip clean up crew with appropriate protective equipment (See Employee Protection
Recommendations). Soak up in absorbent material such as sand, vermiculite, Fuller's Earth and collect
material in suitable containers.
Waste Disposal Method - Waste may be incinerated or disposed of in accordance with federal, state, and
local environmental control regulations. Empty containers must be handled with care due to product
residue and flammable solvent vapor. Do not heat or cut empty container with electric or gas torch. (See
Sections IV and VII).
Section IX - Special Precautions and Storage Data
** Limit storage of flammable material to approved areas **
Storage Temperature (min/max) 32?F. (0 C.)/122?F. (50 C.)
Special Sensitivity: Material is hygroscopic and may absorb small amount of atmospheric
moisture. Containers should be tightly closed to prevent contamination with foreign materials and
moisture.
Handling/Storage Precautions: **Material is FLAMMABLE - Keep away from heat, sparks and
open flame.** Take precautions to prevent against the buildup of electrostatic charges. Store in tightly
closed containers to prevent moisture contamination. Practice caution and good personal cleanliness to
avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid breathing vapors.
**NOTE** - Two component system - The cautions and hazards of both components apply to combined
product when mixed.
