Precautionary statement
Prevention Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Do not
spray on an open flame or other ignition source. Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn,
even after use. Do not apply while equipment is energized. Extinguish all flames, pilot lights and
heaters. Vapors will accumulate readily and may ignite. Use only with adequate ventilation;
maintain ventilation during use and until all vapors are gone. Open doors and windows or use
other means to ensure a fresh air supply during use and while product is drying. If you experience
any symptoms listed on this label, increase ventilation or leave the area. Do not breathe mist or
vapor. Wash thoroughly after handling. Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product. Wear
protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection. Avoid release to the
environment.
Response If swallowed: Immediately call a poison center/doctor. Do NOT induce vomiting. Rinse mouth. If
on skin: Wash with plenty of water. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical advice/attention. Take off
contaminated clothing and wash before reuse. If inhaled: Remove person to fresh air and keep
comfortable for breathing. If in eyes: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove
contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical
advice/attention. If exposed: Call a poison center/doctor.
Storage Store in a well-ventilated place. Store locked up. Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to
temperatures exceeding 50°C/122°F. Exposure to high temperature may cause can to burst.
Disposal Dispose of contents/container in accordance with local/regional/national regulations.
Hazard(s) not otherwise Static accumulating flammable liquid can become electrostatically charged even in bonded and
classified (HNOC) grounded equipment. Sparks may ignite liquid and vapor. May cause flash fire or explosion.

4. First-aid measures
Inhalation Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON
CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
Skin contact Remove contaminated clothing. Rinse skin with water/shower. If skin irritation occurs: Get medical
advice/attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Eye contact Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses, if
present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Ingestion Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Rinse mouth. Do not induce vomiting. If
vomiting occurs, keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Do not use
mouth-to-mouth method if victim ingested the substance. Induce artificial respiration with the aid of
a pocket mask equipped with a one-way valve or other proper respiratory medical device.
Most important Aspiration may cause pulmonary edema and pneumonitis. May cause drowsiness and dizziness.
symptoms/effects, acute and Narcosis. Headache. Nausea, vomiting. Behavioral changes. Decrease in motor functions. Severe
delayed eye irritation. Symptoms may include stinging, tearing, redness, swelling, and blurred vision. May
cause blindness if swallowed. Skin irritation. May cause redness and pain. Edema. Prolonged
exposure may cause chronic effects.
Indication of immediate Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically. Keep victim warm. Keep victim
medical attention and special under observation. Symptoms may be delayed.
treatment needed
General information IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. Ensure that medical personnel are aware
of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves. Show this safety data
sheet to the doctor in attendance.
5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media Water fog. Alcohol resistant foam. Carbon dioxide (CO2). Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide,
sand or earth may be used for small fires only.
Unsuitable extinguishing Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

Specific hazards arising from Contents under pressure. Pressurized container may rupture when exposed to heat or flame. This
the chemical product is a poor conductor of electricity and can become electrostatically charged. If sufficient
charge is accumulated, ignition of flammable mixtures can occur. Static electricity accumulation
may be significantly increased by the presence of small quantities of water or other contaminants.
Material will float and may ignite on surface of water. During fire, gases hazardous to health may
be formed.
Special protective equipment Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with
and precautions for firefighters face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
Fire-fighting In case of fire: Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without
equipment/instructions risk. Containers should be cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure build up.
General fire hazards Extremely flammable aerosol. Contents under pressure. Pressurized container may rupture when
exposed to heat or flame.

Appropriate engineering Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
controls should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level. Provide
eyewash station.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Skin protection
Hand protection Wear protective gloves such as: Nitrile. Neoprene. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).
Other Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
Respiratory protection If engineering controls are not feasible or if exposure exceeds the applicable exposure limits, use a
NIOSH-approved cartridge respirator with an organic vapor cartridge. Use a self-contained
breathing apparatus in confined spaces and for emergencies. Air monitoring is needed to
determine actual employee exposure levels.
Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
General hygiene Observe any medical surveillance requirements. When using do not smoke. Keep away from food
considerations and drink. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the
material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective
equipment to remove contaminants.
