==================== SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA =======================
INHALATION HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
May cause nose and throat irritation. Repeated and prolonged exposure to organic solvents may lead to permanent brain
and nervous system damage. Eye watering, headaches, nausea, dizziness, and loss of coordination are signs that
solvent levels are too high. Exposure to isocyanates may cause sensitization. This effect may be permanent. Repeated
exposure to isocyanates may result in a decrease in lung function that may be permanent.
Individuals with breathing problems or have had a prior reaction to isocyanates must not be exposed to this product.
If affected by inhalation, remove to fresh air. If breathing difficulty persists, consult a physician.
SKIN AND EYE CONTACT HEALTH RISKS AND SYMPTOMS OF EXPOSURE
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. be accompanied by coughing, labored breathing, tightness in chest, and asthma-like symptoms.
CHRONIC- Overexposure to isocyanates can lead to lung sensitation and allergic respiratory reaction. Effects may be
permanent. Allergic reaction may occur in sensitized individuals at below recommended exposure limit. Reports have
linked organic solvents with brain and nervous system damage.
CARCINOGENICITY: NTP CARCINOGEN: No IARC MONOGRAPHS: No
To the best of our knowledge this material contains no known carcinogens
MATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET

OSHA REGULATED: Yes
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
Do not use this product i f you have chronic lung or breathing problems, or i f you have ever had a reaction to
isocyanates.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
If ingestion, or any type of overexposure or symptoms of overexposure occur during the use of this product, contact a
poison control center, emergency room or physician immediately; have material safety data sheet available.
=========== SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE ============
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Remove all sources of ignition (sparks, flames, and hot surfaces). Avoid breathing vapors. Ventilate area. Remove with
an inert absorbent and non-sparking tools.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
Dispose in accordance with state ,federal and local regulations. Do not incinerate closed containers.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING
Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, dry, well ventilated area away from all possible ignition sources. Store large
quanties of material in buildings designed for the storage of flammable liquids.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
Employees should be trained in safety measures that should be taken when using this product.
===================== 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 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 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.
