3. PHYSICAL / CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Boiling Point: Specific Gravity:
-13.5 to 285掳F N/A
Vapor Density: Evaporation Rate:
Heavier than Air Faster than Ether
Appearance & Odor: Solubility in Water:
Aerosol Cleaner N/A
4. FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
Flash Point: Method Used:
Propellant 0.0掳F T.O.C.
Flammable limits in air by Volume: Lower: .9% Upper: 12.8%
Extinguishing Media: CO2, Dry Chemical, Foam
Special Firefighting Procedures: Avoid confined spaces. Firefighters should be equipped with full protective equipment
including a positive pressure NIOSH-approved self-contained breathing apparatus. Water may be unsuitable as an extinguishing medium.
Unusual Fire Hazards: Vapors are heavier than air and may accumulate in low areas of poor ventilation or travel along the ground to remote
ignition sites. Contents are under pressure. Keep cool. Exposure to heat or sunlight may cause cans to burst and propel contents. Water from fog noz-
zles may be helpful in cooling unruptured containers to prevent pressure build-up.
5. REACTIVITY DATA
Stability: Conditions to Avoid:
Stable Do not store above 120掳F
Incompatibility (materials to avoid): Strong oxidizing agents, strong acids and bases, selected amines.
Hazardous Decomposition or By-products: May emit fumes when heated to decomposition. May emit carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide,
unidentified organic compounds.
Hazardous Polymerization: Will not occur
6. HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Inhalation Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: May cause nose and throat irritation. May cause system depression characterized by
the following progressive steps: Headache, dizziness, nausea, staggering gait, lassitude, loss of coordination, confusion, unconsciousness.
Skin and Eye Contact Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: May cause irritation or burning of the eyes. Repeated or prolonged liquid con-

tact may cause skin irritation with discomfort and dermatitis. Eye watering, headaches, nausea, dizziness, etc., are signs that solvent levels are too
high.
Skin Absorption Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: See inhalation. Organic solvents are easily absorbed. Dry skin, redness, or
dermatitis due to the defatting action of solvents are signs of exposure.
Ingestion Health Risks and Symptoms of Exposure: See inhalation. May also result in gastro-intestinal distress. There is a danger of
petroleum distillates entering the lung if swallowed or vomited and causing inflammation, damage or even death.
Health Hazards Acute & Chronic: Reports have associated repeated and prolonged overexposure to solvent with permanent brain and ner-
vous system damage. Laboratory studies with rats have shown that petroleum distillates cause kidney damage and kidney or liver tumors. These ef-
fects were not seen in similar studies with guinea pigs, dogs or monkeys. Several studies evaluating petroleum workers have not shown a significant
increase of kidney damage or an increase in kidney or liver tumors.
Carcinogenicity: NTP? IARC Monographs? No OSHA Regulated ? No
No
Methylene Chloride is known to the state of California to cause cancer. Toluene is known to the State of California to cause reproductive toxicity.
Medical conditions generally aggravated by exposure: Pre-existing eye, skin, and respiratory disorders may be aggravated by exposure
to this product.
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth to mouth, call doctor.
Eyes: In case of eye contact, immediately flush with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, call a physician.
Skin: In case of skin contact, wash skin with soap and water. If irritation occurs, contact a physician.
Ingestion: For ingestion, call physician immediately, have names of hazardous ingredients ready, do not induce vomiting, keep
head lower than waist. Aspiration of vomitus may result in chemical pneumonitis and/or pulmonary edema.
7. PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING AND USE
Steps to be taken in case material is released or spilled: Ventilate area, remove sources of ignition, including hot metal surfaces. Wear ap-
propriate clothing and gear. Prevent skin contact and avoid breathing of vapor. Confine immediately and remove with inert absorbent such as clay or
sand.
Waste Disposal Method: Do not allow material to contaminate ground water system. Place in non-leaking containers. Dispose of absorbed mate-
rial in accordance with all federal, state, and local requirements. Do not incinerate in closed containers.
Precautions to be taken in handling and storage: Observe label precautions. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame (i.e. all ignition
sources). Cap container after each use. Wash thoroughly after handling and before eating or smoking. Do not store above 120掳F. Store in dry, well
ventilated place. Do not expose to direct sunlight to avoid bursting. Do not spray near fire or flame.
Other Precautions: Keep away from children. Avoid unnecessary contact. Do not take internally. Do not puncture containers. Use with ade-
quate ventilation - Do not inhale vapors. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling vapors of this product may be harmful or
fatal. Do not sand, flame cut, braze or weld dry coating without a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator or sufficient ventilation.
8. CONTROL MEASURES
Respiratory Protection: Do not breath vapors or mists. If the TLV, PEL, or other limits are exceeded, then wear a properly fitted vapor and par-
ticulate or positive pressure air supplied respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for use with paints during application and until all vapors and spray
mists are exhausted. Follow the respirator manufacturer's directions for proper use.
Ventilation: Proper sufficient ventilation in volume and pattern to keep contaminants below applicable OSHA Requirements or other suggested
exposure limits. Use only explosion proof equipment with flammable materials.
Protective Gloves: Use neoprene gloves or better. Protective creams are not recommended for protection but may be used for ease of cleanup.
Eye Protection: Goggles are best to prevent eye irritation. When using safety glasses add splash guard, side shields, or face shield.
Other Protective Clothing or Equipment: Apron, coveralls, or work clothes. Change clothes and shoes in case of spill, splash or
excessive over spray. Do not reuse clothing or shoes while solvent odor is retained in them. Eye washes and safety showers could also be provided.
Work/Hygienic Practices: As with all chemical products, use care in handling. Do not smoke or eat without first washing your hands.
