SECTION 3 -- HAZARDOUS IDENTIFICATIONS
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: Causes eye irritation. Causes skin irritation. May cause allergic skin reaction.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS DUE TO OVEREXPOSURE:
EYE CONT ACT: Extremely irritating to the eyes and may cause severe damage, including blindness. Substance causes severe
eye irritation. Injury may be permanent.
SKIN CONT ACT: May cause skin sensitization, an allergic reaction, which becomes evident on reexposure to this material.
INHALATION: High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs.
INGESTION: Substance may be harmful if swallowed.
CHRONIC HAZARDS:
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous
system damage. Contains carbon black. Chronic inflammation, lung fibrosis, and lung tumors have been observed in some rats
experimentally exposed for long periods of time to excessive concentrations of carbon black and several insoluble fine dust
particles. Tumors have not been observed in other animal species (i.e., mouse and hampster) under similar circumstances

and study conditions. Epidemiological studies of North American workers show no evidence of clinically significant adverse
health effects due to occupational exposure to carbon black. Carbon black is listed as a Group 2B-"Possibly carcinogenic
to humans" by IARC and is proposed to be listed as A4- "not classified as a human carcinogen" by the American Conference
of Govermental Industrial Hygienists. Significant exposure is not anticipated during brush application or drying. Risk of overex-
posure depends on duration and level of exposure to dust from repeated sanding of surfaces or spray mist and the actual
concentration of carbon black in the formula.
PRIMARY ROUTES OF ENTR Y: Skin Contact, Inhalation, Eye Contact.
SECTION 4 -- FIRST AID MEASURES
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Get medical attention.
SKIN CONTACT: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
INGESTION: 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.
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
Get immediate medical attention.
DO NOT LEAVE VICTIM UNATTENDED.
SECTION 5-- FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES AND FIRE HAZARDS
FLASH POINT(Setaflash): 210?F
LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT:
0.6 % 9.0 %
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Dry Chemical, Foam, Water Fog.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: FLASH POINT IS TESTED TO BE GREATER THAN 200 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT
SPECIAL FIRE-FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance. Full protective equipment including
self-contained breathing apparatus should be used. Water may be used to cool closed containers to prevent buildup of steam.
SECTION 6 -- ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES (SPILLS OR LEAKS)
STEPS TO BE T AKEN IF MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. Do not use combustible
materials such as sawdust. Dispose of according to Local, State (Provincial) and Federal regulations. DO NOT INCINERATE
CLOSED CONTAINERS.
SECTION 7 -- HANDLING AND STORAGE
HANDLING: Wash thoroughly after handling. Use only in a well-ventilated area. Follow all MSDS/Label precautions even after
container is emptied because it may retain product residues. Avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing.
STORAGE: Keep containers tightly closed. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and open flame.

SECTION 8 -- EXPOSURE CONTROLS, PERSONAL PROTECTION
RESPIRA TORY PROTECTION: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must
be followed whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use. A NIOSH/MSHA approved air purifying respirator with an
organic vapor cartridge or canister may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expect-
ed to exceed exposure limits.
Protection provided by air purifying respirators is limited. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential
for an uncontrolled release, exposure levels are not known, or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not
provide adequate protection.
SKIN PROTECTION: Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin protection. Use gloves to prevent prolonged skin
contact.
EYE PROTECTION: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Prevent buildup of vapors by opening all doors and windows to achieve cross-ventilation. Use
process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation, or other engineering controls to control airborne levels below recommended
exposure limits.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further information regarding personal
protective equipment and its application.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated
clothing immediately and launder before reuse.
