May cause irritation or burning of the eyes. Repeated and prolonged skin contact may cause skin
irritation or dermatitis. In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes; call a physician. In case of skin contact, wash with soap and water. If irritation
occurs, contact a physician.
INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
Gastrointestinal distress. In the unlikely event of ingestion, call a physician immediately and
have the names of all ingredients available.
HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC)
ACUTE- Dizziness, irritation of the respiratory tract, weakness, nausea, or possible narcosis or
even asphyxiation. May be accompanied by coughing or labored breathing.

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 a 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 a liquid splash.
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT
Impervious coveralls are recommended.
WORK/HYGIENIC PRACTICES
Eye wash and safety showers in the work place are recommended. Wash hands before eating and
smoking.
