| SECTION 3 - HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INHALATION: Harmful if inhaled. Headaches,
dizziness, nausea, decreased blood pressure, changes in heart rate and
cyanosis may result from over-exposure to vapor.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INGESTION: Irritating to mouth, throat and
stomach.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - CHRONIC HAZARDS: Chronic inhalation of toluene
vapors can produce depression of the central nervous system, leading to
fainting, difficulty in breathing, nausea, vomitting, and memory loss.
Preexisting respiratory or skin condition(s) may be aggravated by exposure.
Overexposure may cause nasal damage. This product contains silicon
dioxide [quartz] which has been listed as a suspected human carcinogen by
NTP and IARC.
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: SKIN CONTACT SKIN ABSORPTION INHALATION EYE
CONTACT
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
FIRST AID - EYE CONTACT: Flush eye with water for 15 minutes. Get medical
attention.
FIRST AID - SKIN CONTACT: Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash
affected area(s) throughly with soap and water. If irritation persist,
seek medical attention.
FIRST AID - INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give
artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Get
immediate medical attention.
FIRST AID - INGESTION: Get medical attention immediately. If swallowed,
DO NOT induce vomiting. Give victim a glass of water or milk. Call a
physician or poison control center immediately. Never give anything by
mouth to an unconscious person. Should vomiting occur, be sure to keep
victum's head below hips to avoid aspiration of vomitus into lungs.

| SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
FLASH POINT: 72 F LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: 1.2 %
(PENSKY-MARTENS C.C.) UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: 7.5 %
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: N/D
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: CO2 DRY CHEMICAL FOAM WATER FOG
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: Fire produces irritating or poisonous
gas. Vapors may form explosive mixture with air. Vapors can travel to a
source of ignition and flash back. "Empty" containers retain product
residue (liquid and/or vapor) and can be dangerous. DO NOT PRESSURIZE,

+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL, GRIND, OR EXPOSE SUCH CONTAINERS TO HEAT,
FLAME, SPARKS, STATIC ELECTRICITY, OR OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION; CONTAINERS
MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE INJURY OR DEATH. Solid stream of water or foam may
cause frothing.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: May be ignited by heat, sparks or flame.
Containers exposed to fire should be kept cool with water spray.
Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat (fire). As in any
fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand (MSHA/NIOSH
approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Ventilate the
area and remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate unneccessary personnel.
Large spills should be handled carefully. Put on respiratory protection
and necessary personal protective equipment. Dike or impound spilled
liquid. Absorb spill with inert material (e.g. dry sand or earth), then
place in a chemical waste container. Repeat sorbent/sweep cycle until the
spill has dried up. Avoid runoff into storm sewers and ditches which lead
to waterways.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
HANDLING: Use only in a well ventilated area. Keep out of reach of
children. Ground and bound containers when transferring material. If user
operations generate dust, fume, or mist, use ventilation to keep exposure
to airborne contaminents below the exposure limit.
STORAGE: Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Keep container closed
when not in use.
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Local exhaust ventilation may be necessary to
control any air contaminants to within their TLVs during the use of this
product.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: Wear NIOSH/MSHA approved respiratory protection
when the product is mixed or applied in a poorly ventilated area or if
workplace levels of ingredients exceed the TLV. Follow applicable federal,
state, and local regulations.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Use rubber, neoprene or vinyl alcohol gloves.
Wear gloves (Natural, supported PVC, neoprene or nitrile rubber), eye
goggles, and clean protective clothing to cover arms and legs to keep
exposure to a minimum.
