cause irritation with possible damage if not rinsed immediately.
Inhalation Hazardous by the following route of exposure: of inhalation (lung irritant). Can cause
central nervous system (CNS) depression. Inhalation of vapor/aerosol concentrations above
the recommended exposure limits causes headaches, drowsiness and nausea and may lead to
unconsciousness or death. Prolonged repeated exposure may cause chemical pneumontitis.
Medical conditions aggravated by over-exposure Respiratory, Heart (Cardiac).
Ingestion Aspiration hazard if swallowed. Can enter lungs and cause damage.
NOTE: MSDS data pertains to the product as delivered in the original shipping container(s). Risk of adverse health effects are lessened by
following all prescribed safety precautions, including use of proper personal protective equipment.
