equipment should be explosion proof.
PROTECTIVE GLOVES: Suggest plastic or rubber
EYE PROTECTION: Chemical goggles must be worn at all times when handling product. If there is a
possibility of splashing, wear protective face shield. If vapours irritate eyes, wear full
face respirator.
OTHER PROTECTIVE Chemical resistant protective clothing must be worn at all times when handling
EQUIPMENT (Specify): product. Wash thoroughly or dispose of any contaminated clothing.
PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN IN HANDLING AND STORING
Avoid inhalation of vapours / mists. Do not get on skin, in eyes or on clothing. Keep container closed when not in

incompatible materials. Store in dry, cool, well ventilated area away from sources of heat, ignition or sparks. Use
proper grounding techniques if product is classed as flammable or combustible. Eye wash and safety showers
should be easily accessible and in proper operating order.
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE THE MATERIAL IS SPILLED OR RELEASED
Remove all sources of ignition. Contain spill. Absorb material on appropriate non-flammable absorbent and shovel
into compatible containers. Avoid all bodily contact. Appropriate breathing apparatus must be worn if ventilation is
inadequate. Do not allow product to enter sewers or storm water inlets.
