EXTINGUISHING MEDIA
Water may reduce intensity of burning鈥攂ut may also spread the burning mixture. Water spray should be used to cool containers only.
SPECIAL FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Firefighters should wear full protective equipment and NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus.
Use water stream or mist to keep intact containers cool.
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
Heat may cause containers to pressurize and burst, greatly increasing the fire hazard. Methanol burns with an invisible flame. Take care entering
areas where combustion is suspected.
