There are no S.A.R.A. Section 313 ingredients in this material in excess of de minimis amounts.
Generally, the above ingredients that do not possess a vapor pressure are pigments and are only hazardous as airborne particles when the coating begins to degrade.
The HMIS (Hazardous Materials Identification System) codes at the upper right area of this page are recognized by OSHA. The PERSONAL PROTECTION code is left
blank on Tropical Roofing Products MSDSs as it depends on application technique and workplace ventilation. Please read all other sections of this MSDS before deciding on
the appropriate protective equipment and beginning work.

======================== SECTION VI - HEALTH HAZARD DATA (CONTINUED) =======================
MEDICAL CONDITIONS GENERALLY AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE
Ingredients in this product are reported to aggravate preexisting eye, skin, respiratory, kidney and liver disorders.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Eye contact: Flush with large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek immediate medical attention.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Administer oxygen if necessary. Seek immediate medical attention.
Skin contact: Wash thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists, get medical attention.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Drink 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute. Obtain medical attention immediately.
==================== SECTION VII - PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE ===================
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED
Avoid contact and breathing of vapors. Ventilate area. Remove ignition sources. Dike and absorb with absorbent material.
Use nonsparking tools to return material to container. Prevent material from entering sewers or open bodies of water.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD
Do not incinerate closed containers.
Dispose of in accordance with Federal, State and Local regulations.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING
Keep out of reach of children. Do not take internally. Avoid contact with eyes and prolonged contact with skin.
When storing, close tightly, keep upright, away from fire and high temperatures. Transfer to approved containers with complete and
appropriate labeling. Avoid freefall and ground containers when transferring. Do not cut or weld empty drum.
Remove contaminated clothing and launder before reuse. Remove contaminated shoes and thoroughly dry before reuse. Wash skin
thoroughly with soap and water after contact.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS
Warning! If you scrape, sand or remove an old coating, you may release lead dust. Lead is toxic. Exposure to lead dust can cause serious
illness, such as brain damage, especially in children. Pregnant women should also avoid exposure. Wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to
control lead exposure. Clean up carefully with a HEPA vacuum and wet mop. Before you start, find out how to protect yourself and your
family by contacting the National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD or log onto www.epa.gov/lead.
============================== SECTION VIII - CONTROL MEASURES ==============================
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
Use only with adequate ventilation. Provide adequate fresh air entry. If not wear the proper respiratory protection.
If ventilation is inadequate use an organic vapor/particulate respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for spray/mist vapors.
When sanding a dried coating film use a dust/mist respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for dust which may be generated.
VENTILATION
Local exhaust preferable. If venting, discharge exhaust away from ignition sources.
If in confined areas, use mechanical ventilation to keep vapor concentration under permissible TLV and LEL.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES
Solvent impermeable rubber gloves required during repeated contact.
EYE PROTECTION
Splash resistant and spray mist protection required. Use splash goggles or safety glasses with side shields.
OTHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OR EQUIPMENT
Clothing adequate to protect skin. Remove and wash before reuse.
Eye wash, safety shower.
WORK/HYGIENIC PRACTICES
Normal industrial hygienic practices should be followed. Wash hands before eating, smoking or using the washroom.
