Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
路 Contact lenses may pose a special hazard; soft contact lenses may absorb and
concentrate irritants. A written policy document, describing the wearing of lens or
restrictions on use, should be created for each workplace or task. This should include a
review of lens absorption and adsorption for the class of chemicals in use and an account
of injury experience. Medical and first-aid personnel should be trained in their removal
and suitable equipment should be readily available. In the event of chemical exposure,
begin eye irrigation immediately and remove contact lens as soon as practicable. Lens
should be removed at the first signs of eye redness or irritation - lens should be
removed in a clean environment only after workers have washed hands thoroughly. [CDC
NIOSH Current Intelligence Bulletin 59].
HANDS/FEET
Wear general protective gloves, eg. light weight rubber gloves.
Suitability and durability of glove type is dependent on usage. Factors such as:
路 frequency and duration of contact,
路 chemical resistance of glove material,
路 glove thickness and
路 dexterity,
are important in the selection of gloves.
OTHER
No special equipment needed when handling small quantities.
OTHERWISE:
路 Overalls.
路 Barrier cream.
路 Eyewash unit.
The local concentration of material, quantity and conditions of use determine the type of
personal protective equipment required.
For further information consult site specific
CHEMWATCH data (if available), or your
Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.
ENGINEERING CONTROLS
General exhaust is adequate under normal operating conditions. If risk of overexposure
exists, wear SAA approved respirator. Correct fit is essential to obtain adequate
protection. Provide adequate ventilation in warehouse or closed storage areas. Air
contaminants generated in the workplace possess varying "escape" velocities which, in
turn, determine the "capture velocities" of fresh circulating air required to effectively
remove the contaminant.
Type of Contaminant: Air Speed:
solvent, vapours, degreasing etc., 0.25- 0.5 m/s (50- 100 f/min)
evaporating from tank (in still air)
aerosols, fumes from pouring operations, 0.5- 1 m/s (100- 200 f/min.)
intermittent container filling, low speed
conveyer transfers, welding, spray drift,
plating acid fumes, pickling (released at
low velocity into zone of active generation)
direct spray, spray painting in shallow 1- 2.5 m/s (200- 500 f/min)
booths, drum filling, conveyer loading,
crusher dusts, gas discharge (active
generation into zone of rapid air motion)
grinding, abrasive blasting, tumbling, high 2.5- 10 m/s (500- 2000 f/min.)
speed wheel generated dusts (released at
high initial velocity into zone of very high
rapid air motion).

Section 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Within each range the appropriate value depends on:
Lower end of the range Upper end of the range
1: Room air currents minimal or favourable 1: Disturbing room air currents
to capture
2: Contaminants of low toxicity or of 2: Contaminants of high toxicity
nuisance value only
3: Intermittent, low production. 3: High production, heavy use
4: Large hood or large air mass in motion 4: Small hood - local control only
Simple theory shows that air velocity falls rapidly with distance away from the opening
of a simple extraction pipe. Velocity generally decreases with the square of distance
from the extraction point (in simple cases). Therefore the air speed at the extraction
point should be adjusted, accordingly, after reference to distance from the contaminating
source. The air velocity at the extraction fan, for example, should be a minimum of 1-2
m/s (200-400 f/min.) for extraction of solvents generated in a tank 2 meters distant from
the extraction point. Other mechanical considerations, producing performance deficits
within the extraction apparatus, make it essential that theoretical air velocities are
multiplied by factors of 10 or more when extraction systems are installed or used.

Section 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION
ACUTE HEALTH EFFECTS
SWALLOWED
The material has NOT been classified by EC Directives or other classification systems as
"harmful by ingestion". This is because of the lack of corroborating animal or human
evidence. The material may still be damaging to the health of the individual, following
ingestion, especially where pre-existing organ (e.g liver, kidney) damage is evident.
Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally based on doses producing
mortality rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-health). Gastrointestinal
tract discomfort may produce nausea and vomiting. In an occupational setting however,
ingestion of insignificant quantities is not thought to be cause for concern.
EYE
Although the liquid is not thought to be an irritant (as classified by EC Directives),
direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterised by tearing or
conjunctival redness (as with windburn).
SKIN
The liquid may be miscible with fats or oils and may degrease the skin, producing a skin
reaction described as non-allergic contact dermatitis. The material is unlikely to
produce an irritant dermatitis as described in EC Directives .
INHALED
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or irritation of the
respiratory tract (as classified by EC Directives using animal models). Nevertheless,
good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable
control measures be used in an occupational setting.
Acute effects from inhalation of high vapour concentrations may be chest and nasal
irritation with coughing, sneezing, headache and even nausea.
CHRONIC HEALTH EFFECTS
Long-term exposure to the product is not thought to produce chronic effects adverse to
health (as classified by EC Directives using animal models); nevertheless exposure by all
routes should be minimised as a matter of course.
TOXICITY AND IRRITATION
Not available. Refer to individual constituents.
Section 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION
No data for Meguiar's G12416 - Hot Shine Tire Gel.
Section 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
Legislation addressing waste disposal requirements may differ by country, state and/ or
territory. Each user must refer to laws operating in their area. In some areas, certain
wastes must be tracked.
A Hierarchy of Controls seems to be common - the user should investigate:
路 Reduction,
路 Reuse
路 Recycling
路 Disposal (if all else fails)
This material may be recycled if unused, or if it has not been contaminated so as to make
it unsuitable for its intended use. If it has been contaminated, it may be possible to
reclaim the product by filtration, distillation or some other means. Shelf life

Section 13 - DISPOSAL CONSIDERATIONS
considerations should also be applied in making decisions of this type. Note that
properties of a material may change in use, and recycling or reuse may not always be
appropriate.
路 DO NOT allow wash water from cleaning or process equipment to enter drains.
路 It may be necessary to collect all wash water for treatment before disposal.
路 In all cases disposal to sewer may be subject to local laws and regulations and these
should be considered first.
路 Where in doubt contact the responsible authority.
路 Recycle wherever possible.
路 Consult manufacturer for recycling options or consult local or regional waste
management authority for disposal if no suitable treatment or disposal facility can be
identified.
路 Dispose of by: Burial in a licenced land-fill or incineration in a licenced apparatus
(after admixture with suitable combustible material).
路 Decontaminate empty containers. Observe all label safeguards until containers are
cleaned and destroyed.
