Exposure Notes:
The talc (CAS number 14807-96 -6) within this product naturally contains a non-fibrous tremolite (CAS number 14567-73-8), non-
fibrous antigorite (CAS number 12135-86-3), and non-fibrous anthophyllite (CAS number 17068-78-9). Refer to 29 CFR 1910.1000
Table Z3 for the permissible exposure limits associated with non -fibrous talc and these naturally occurring incidental constituents.
Important: Listed Permissible Exposure Levels (PEL) are from the U.S. Dept. of Labor OSHA Final Rule Limits (CFR 29 1910.1000); these limits may vary
between states.
Note: An employee's skin exposure to substances having a "YES" in the "SKIN" column in the table above shall be prevented or reduced to the extent

necessary under the circumstances through the use of gloves, coveralls, goggles or other appropriate personal protective equipment, engineering controls or work
practices
Section 3 - Hazards Identification
Emergency Overview: A colored solid product with a slight sweet odor. May cause eye, skin, nose, throat and
respiratory tract irritation. In an emergency situation, this product should not pose a significant immediate concern for
emergency response personnel. This product contains ethylene glycol.
Refer to other MSDS sections for other detailed information.
Effects Of Overexposure - Eye Contact: May cause eye irritation. Not expected to cause eye problems under normal
use conditions.
Effects Of Overexposure - Skin Contact: May cause skin irritation. Not expected to cause skin problems under normal
use conditions.
Effects Of Overexposure - Inhalation: Inhalation may cause irritation to the respiratory tract (nose, mouth, mucous
membranes). Due to the viscosity, this product does not present an aspiration hazard. Dust from dry sanding may cause
eye, skin, nose, throat and respiratory tract irritation.
Effects Of Overexposure - Ingestion: Harmful if swallowed. Under normal use conditions, this product is not expected
to cause adverse health effects.
Effects Of Overexposure - Chronic Hazards:
Ethylene Glycol may cause kidney and liver damage upon prolonged and repeated overexposures. Studies have shown
that repeated inhalation of ethylene glycol has produced adverse cardiovascular changes in laboratory animals. Ethylene
glycol has been shown to cause birth defects in laboratory animals. Under normal use conditions, this product is not
expected to cause adverse health effects.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Eye Contact
Medical Conditions which May be Aggravated by Exposure: None known.
Section 4 - First Aid Measures
First Aid - Eye Contact: If eye irritation persists, consult a specialist. Flush eyes with water as a precaution.
First Aid - Skin Contact: Wash off with soap and water.
First Aid - Inhalation: First Aid: If you experience difficulty in breathing, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If continued
difficulty is experienced, get medical attention Immediately.
First Aid - Ingestion: If swallowed, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING. Get medical attention immediately.
Note to Physician: None.
COMMENTS: Call Medical Emergency at 1-800-327-3874 if any irritation or complication arises from any of the above
routes of entry.
