SECTION 3 HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Routes of
Exposure:
Inhalation of vapor or spray mist
Eye or Skin contact with the product, vapor
or spray mist
Effects of
Over Exposure:
Eyes Irritation
Skin Prolonged or repeated exposure may
cause irritation
Inhalation Irritation of the upper
respiratory system
In a confined area vapors in high
concentration may cause headache, nausea or dizziness.
Signs and
Symptoms of Overexposure:
Redness and itching or burning sensation
may indicate eye or excessive skin exposure.
Medical
Conditions Aggravated by Exposure: None generally recognized
Cancer
Information: For complete discussion of
toxicology data refer to Section 11
SECTION 4 FIRST AID MEASURES
Skin: Wash affected area thoroughly with soap and
water. Remove contaminated clothing and launder
before reuse.
Eyes: Flush eyes with large amounts of water for
15 minutes. Get medical attention.
Inhalation: If affected, remove from exposure. Restore
breathing. Keep warm and quiet.
Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting. Get medical
attention immediately.
SECTION 5 FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flash
Point: LEL UEL
Not Applicable N/A N/A
Flammable
Classification: Not Applicable
Extinguishing
Media: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Alcohol Foam
Unusual
Fire and Explosion Hazards: Closed containers may explode (due to the build-up
of pressure)
when exposed to extreme heat.
During emergency conditions overexposure to
decomposition products may cause a health hazard.
Symptoms may not be immediately
apparent. Obtain medical attention.
Special
Fire Fighting Procedures:
Full protective equipment including
self-contained breathing apparatus should be used.
Water spray may be ineffective. If water is
used, fog nozzles are preferable. Water maybe used to cool
closed containers to prevent
pressure build-up and possible auto-ignition or explosion when exposed
to extreme heat.
SECTION 6 ACCIDENTAL RELEASE
MEASURES
Steps to
be taken in case material is released or spilled:
Remove all sources of ignition
Ventilate area
Remove with inert absorbent
SECTION 7 HANDLING and STORAGE
Storage
Category: Not Applicable
Precautions
to be taken in handling and storage:
Keep container closed when not in use. Transfer only
to approved containers with complete
and appropriate labeling. Do not take internally. Keep out of
the reach of children.
SECTION 8 EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL
PROTECTION
Precautions
to be taken in use:
Use only with adequate ventilation.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Avoid breathing vapor and spray mist.
Wash hands after use.
This coating may contain materials
classified as nuisance particulates (listed as Dust in Section 2)
which may be present at hazardous
levels only during sanding or abrading of the dried film. If no
specific dusts are listed in
Section 2, the applicable limits for nuisance dusts are ACGIH TLV 10
mg/m3 (total dust), 3
mg/m3 (respirable fraction), OSHA PEL 15 mg/m3 (total
dust), 5 mg/m3
(respirable fraction).
Removal of
old paint by sanding, scraping or other means may generate dust or fumes that
contain lead.
Exposure to lead dust or fumes may
cause brain damage or other adverse health effects, especially in
children or pregnant women.
Controlling exposure to lead or other hazardous substances requires the
use of proper protective equipment,
such as a properly fitted respirator (NIOSH approved) and proper
containment and clean up. For more
information, call the National Lead Information Center at 800-424-
LEAD (in U.S.) or contact your local
health authority.
Ventilation:
Local exhaust preferable. General exhaust
acceptable if the exposure to materials in Section 2 is
maintained below applicable
exposure limits. Refer to OSHA Standards 1910.94, 1910.107, 1910.108.
Respiratory
Protection:
If personal exposure cannot be controlled
below applicable limits by ventilation, wear a properly fitted
organic vapor/particulate
respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for protection against materials in
Section 2.
When sanding or abrading the dried film,
wear a dust/mist respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for
dust which may be generated from this product, underlying paint,
or the abrasive.
Protective
Gloves:
Wear
gloves which are recommended by glove supplier for protection against materials
in Section 2.
Eye
Protection:
Wear safety spectacles with unperforated
sideshields.
