|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
EMERGENCY OVERVIEW: A clear paste with a mild sweet odor.
WARNING! May cause eye, skin, nose, throat and respiratory tract
irritation, dizziness, drowsiness, allergic skin reaction or
allergic skin reaction. Harmful or fatal if swallowed or absorbed through
the skin. Presents little or no hazard if spilled and no unusual hazard if
involved in a fire.
POTENTIAL HEALTH EFFECTS:
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - EYE CONTACT: May cause eye irritation.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - SKIN CONTACT: May cause allergic skin reaction.
Harmful if absorbed through skin. Repeated or prolonged contact with
skin may cause irritation.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INHALATION: Vapor may cause nose, throat and
respiratory tract irritation.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INGESTION: This material may be harmful or
fatal if swallowed. If ingested this product may cause vomiting, diarrhea,
and depressed respiration. Ingestion of ethylene glycol can cause
gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and if ingested in
sufficient quantities, death.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - CHRONIC HAZARDS: Repeated or prolonged contact
may cause skin, kidney, cardiovascular and liver damage. Ethylene glycol
has been shown to cause birth defects in laboratory animals.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS WHICH MAY BE AGGRAVATED BY CONTACT: None known.
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: SKIN CONTACT INHALATION
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
EYE CONTACT: Immediately flood with large quantities of water for at least
15 minutes until irritation subsides. Get medical attention immediately.
SKIN CONTACT: Wash thoroughly with soap and water.

|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| SECTION 4 - FIRST AID MEASURES |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If you experience difficulty in
breathing, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If continued breathing
difficulty is experienced, get medical attention immediately.
INGESTION: DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Get medical attention immediately.
COMMENTS: Call Medical Emergency 1-800-327-3874 if any irritation or
complications arise from any of the above routes of entry.

| SECTION 5 - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
FLASH POINT: >200 F LOWER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: N.A.
(SETAFLASH CLOSED CUP) UPPER EXPLOSIVE LIMIT: N.A.
AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: N.E.
EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: CO2 DRY CHEMICAL FOAM
UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: None known.
SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: As in any fire, wear self-contained
breathing apparatus pressure-demand (NIOSH approved or equivalent) and
full protective gear. Use water spray to cool exposed surfaces.
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
SPILL OR LEAK PROCEDURES: Use absorbent material or scrape up dried
material and place into containers.
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
HANDLING INFORMATION: KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DO NOT TAKE
INTERNALLY. Avoid contact with skin. Avoid contact with eyes. Do not get
on clothing. Use only with adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing vapors.
Ensure fresh air entry during application and drying by opening windows and
doors. Keep container closed when not in use. Wash thoroughly after
handling.
STORAGE INFORMATION: Store away from caustics and oxidizers. Keep
containers tightly closed when not in use. Keep containers from excessive
heat and freezing. Do not store at temperatures above 120 degrees F.
OTHER PRECAUTIONS: None known.

| SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Good general ventilation should be sufficient to
control airborne contaminant levels. A NIOSH-approved air purifying
respirator with an organic vapor cartridge or canister may be necessary
under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to
exceed exposure limits.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: A respiratory protection program that meets OSHA
1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 requirements must be followed whenever workplace
conditions warrant a respirator's use.
EYE PROTECTION: Wear safety glasses with side shields.
SKIN PROTECTION: Rubber gloves.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: None.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.

SIGNIFICANT DATA WITH POSSIBLE RELEVANCE TO HUMANS
This product contains trace amounts of free formaldehyde. OSHA, NTP and
IARC identify formaldehyde as a potential carcinogen. Formaldehyde has
been shown to cause mutations in a variety of in-vitro test systems, the
significance of which to humans is unknown. There should be minimal risk
when used with ventilation adequate to keep the atmospheric concentration
of formaldehyde below the recommended exposure limit. Maintain adequate
ventilation to prevent exposure above current OSHA / ACGIH exposure limits.
Workplace monitoring of the air to define formaldehyde exposure levels may
be necessary.
This product contains trace amounts of acrylonitrile. It is exempt from
the OSHA acrylonitrile standard 29 CFR 1910.1045, paragraph (a) (2) (ii).
Acrylonitrile has been classified by IARC as possibly carcinogenic to
humans, by OSHA as carcinogenic and by NTP as reasonably anticipated to be
a human carcinogen.

WASTE MANAGEMENT/DISPOSAL: Dispose of according to Federal, State, and
Local Standards. This product does not meet the definition of a hazardous
waste according to U.S. EPA Hazardous Waste Management Regulations, 40 CFR
Section 261. State and Local regulations/restrictions are complex and may
differ from Federal regulations. Responsibility for proper waste disposal
