Section 3 - Hazards Identification

ROUTES OF EXPOSURE: Exposure may be by INHALATION and/or SKIN or EYE contact, depending on conditions of use. To minimize exposure, follow recommendations for proper use, ventilation, and personal protective equipment.

EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Irritation of eyes, skin and upper respiratory system.

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Headache, dizziness, nausea, and loss of coordination are indications of excessive exposure to vapors or spray mists. Redness and itching or burning sensation may indicate eye or excessive skin exposure.

MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Pre-existing respiratory, skin, eye, liver, kidney and lymphatic disorders.

 


Section 4 -            First Aid Measures

Inhalation: If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. If breathing is difficult give oxygen. Get medical attention.

SKIN CONTACT: Immediately flush skin with plenty of water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Call a physician if irritation persists.  Wash clothing and shoes before reuse.

EYE CONTACT: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Consult medical personnel.

INGESTION: If swallowed, rinse mouth out and then drink 1 or 2 glasses of water to dilute.  Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Consult medical personnel.


Section 5 - Fire Fighting Measures

Flash Point -156°F (propellant only)                          LEL  1.8                    UEL  9.5

EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemicals and Foam

SPECIAL EXPOSURE HAZARDS: Do not expose to temperatures over 120°F. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame.
