==================== SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA =======================
INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Effects vary among individuals
and may include headache, dizziness, nausea, irritation of the nose, throat, and
respiratory tract, and incoordination. Severe overexposure may produce
anesthesia or unconsciousness.
SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Eye contact may
cause irritation, redness, and tearing, and blurred vision. Skin contact may
cause irritation and redness. Long term skin exposure may dry and defat the
skin, causing cracking, and in severe cases, dermatitis.
INGESTION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE: Ingestion can cause
gastrointestinal irritation, vomiting, nausea, and diarrhea.
HEALTH HAZARDS (ACUTE AND CHRONIC): Breathing high concentrations of aerosols or
mists of this material may cause nausea and irritation of the nose, throat, and
respiratory tract. Acute overexposure to solvent fumes during air drying of
this product may cause headache, dizziness, nausea, and loss of coordination.
Chronic overexposure to solvent fumes may cause central nervous system damage.
SIGNIFICANT DATA ON MIBK WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMANS
In tests with laboratory animals, methyl isobutyl ketone produced evidence of
embryofetal toxicity at exposure levels which were toxic to mothers, but no
evidence was obtained for teratogenicity, or for embryofetal toxicity, at levels
which did not affect the mothers. Results from five mutagenicity assays with
different genetic endpoints indicate that methyl isobutyl ketone does not
produce activity typical of that of chemical mutagens. Additional studies have
shown that methyl isobutyl ketone is toxic if aspirated. It is known to enhance
the neurotoxicity of linear 6 carbon solvents.
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP: No IARC MONOGRAPHS: Yes OSHA REGULATED: No
CHRONIC EFFECTS OF CARBON BLACK OVEREXPOSURE
The carbon black component of this formula is an IARC listed Group 2B substance,
considered by IARC to be a "Possible human carcinogen". Carbon black is not
designated as a carcinogen by the U.S. National Toxicology Program (NTP) or the
U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). The American
Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) classifies carbon black
as A4, "Not classifiable as a human carcinogen". Carbon black is not presently
listed by California Proposition 65, but the California Office of Environmental
Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) published on October 29, 1999 a Notice of
Intent to List "Carbon Black (airborne particles of respirable size)" as a
"substance known to the State to cause cancer".

SIGNIFICANT DATA WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMANS
This product may contain trace amounts of residual vinyl acetate. Vinyl acetate
has been identified by IARC as a potential human carcinogen. Lifetime exposure
to high vapor concentrations (600 ppm) of vinyl acetate caused malignant and
benign tumors of the respiratory tract of rats, but not mice; this response
possibly being associated with the irritant effect. Vinyl acetate has been
tested for carcinogenic potential in rats in two separate drinking water
studies. In one study in which animals were exposed to concentrations up to 0.5%
in water, there was no evidence of carcinogenicity. In the second study,
conducted at higher concentrations (up to 1% in water), evidence of cancer in
the stomach and oral cavities was observed. There is no evidence that vinyl
acetate has caused cancer in humans. There should be minimal risk when used with
ventilation adequate to keep the atmospheric concentration of vinyl acetate
below the recommended exposure limit. Male rats receiving vinyl acetate at high
concentrations in drinking water (0.5%) for two generations possibly
demonstrated a decreased ability to produce offspring.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Overexposure to solvent
fumes may aggravate anesthesia, respiratory tract disease or pre-existing lung
disorders, nausea, and vomiting.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES: INHALATION OVEREXPOSURE: Remove person to
fresh air, If breathing stops, apply artificial respiration and seek immediate
medical attention. NOTE: Use supplied-air respirator for rescue in enclosed
areas. EYE CONTACT: Flush with large amounts of tepid water for at least 15
minutes, get medical attention. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting, if aspirated
material can cause chemical pneumonitis or pulmonary edema. Drink 2 glasses of
milk or water to dilute and contact physician or poison center. SKIN: Wash with
soap and water, avoid repeated contact.
=========== SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE ============
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Remove all sources of
ignition. Dike to prevent entry into sewers or surface waters. Recover free
liquid by shovelling into container using non-sparking tools, or add absorbant
such as sand or earth to spill and sweep up. Provide ventilation, wear a
respirator. Notify proper authorities if spill contaminates land or waterways.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Store soaked rags or absorbant material in airtight
containers to prevent spontaneous combustion of material. Absorbant materials
may emit flammable vapors. Dispose of in chemical landfill or incinerate
assuring conformity to all applicable local, state, and federal governing
regulations.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORAGE: Do not expose to flame, sparks,
or other sources of ignition. Use non-sparking alloy tools and explosion-proof
equipment for handling. The need for grounding and bonding of containers in
accordance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.106 and NFPA 77 should be assessed before
transferring product. Store inside away from extreme temperature variations.
Protect containers from physical damage. Keep containers tightly closed when
not in use. Do not inhale vapors or mists, use with adequate ventilation and
wear a respirator. Do not store with food or animal feed.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Do not cut, weld, grind, drill, solder, or braze on or near
containers whether full or empty. Do not reuse containers without professional
reconditioning and testing. Do not remove warning labels from containers.

===================== SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES ======================
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Using this product in poorly ventilated areas may
require the use of a respirator. Use Mine Safety Appliance respirator #448849
with organic vapor cartridge and mist filter (or equivalent) if air monitoring
demonstrates that the concentration of listed hazardous materials exceeds the
recommended TLV's. In enclosed areas where ventilation is not used, wear a Mine
Safety Appliance #475217 pressure/demand air-supplied respirator or equivalent.
VENTILATION: Use good general mechanical ventillation and local exhaust adequate
to reduce the concentration of vapors or mists of the listed hazardous materials
to below the Threshold Limit Value(s) and the Lower Explosion Limit.
Ventilation equipment must be explosion proof.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Use of gloves is recommended, use chemically resistant type.
EYE PROTECTION: Use is recommended, use splash goggles or full face shields as
necessary.
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING: Use impervious apron or coveralls to prevent
contaminating streetclothes which may result in prolonged exposure. The use of
head caps or helmets is recommended.
WORK AND HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Eye washes and safety showers in the workplace are
recommended. Practice good industrial hygiene when using this product: After
using this product, do not smoke or eat until washing thoroughly. Remove
saturated clothing or shoes at once and launder before reuse.
