3. Hazards Identification

Danger! Extremely Flammable. Keep away from heat, sparks, flame and all other sources of ignition. Vapors

may cause flash fire or ignite explosively. Vapors may travel long distances to other areas and rooms away from

the work site. Do not smoke. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters, electric motors

and all other sources of ignition anywhere in the structure, dwelling, or building during use and until all vapors

are gone from the work site. Keep away from electrical outlets and switches. Beware of static electricity that

may be generated by synthetic clothing and other sources.

This material is classified as hazardous under OSHA regulations.

Inhalation Acute Exposure Effects:

Vapor harmful. May cause dizziness, headache, watering of eyes, irritation of respiratory tract, drowsiness,

nausea, and numbness in fingers, arms and legs.

Skin Contact Acute Exposure Effects:

May cause drying of skin, and numbness in fingers and arms. Liquid is absorbed readily.

Eye Contact Acute Exposure Effects:

This material is an eye irritant.

Ingestion Acute Exposure Effects:

Harmful if swallowed. May cause dizziness, headache, nausea, and irritation of the mouth, throat, and stomach.

Chronic Exposure Effects:

Reports have associated repeated and prolonged overexposure to solvents with neurological and other

physiological damage. May cause weakness, fatigue, skin irritation, and numbness in hands and feet.

Primary Routes of Exposure:

Inhalation, ingestion, and dermal.

Skin, eye, lung (asthma-like conditions)

4. First Aid Measures

Inhalation:

If user experiences breathing difficulty, move to air free of vapors. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration

until medical assistance can be reached.

Skin Contact:

Wash with soap and water.

Eye Contact:

Flush with large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.

Ingestion:

Call your poison control center, hospital emergency room, or physician immediately for instructions.

Call your local poison control center for further instructions.

5. Fire Fighting Measures

Flammability Classification: Class IB

Flash Pt: -4.00 F Method Used: TAG Closed Cup

Explosive Limits: LEL: 2.5 % at 77.0 F UEL: 13.0 % at 77.0 F

Autoignition Pt: 869.00 F

Self-contained respiratory protection should be provided for fire fighters fighting fires in buildings or confined

areas. Storage containers exposed to fire should be kept cool with water spray to prevent pressure build-up. Stay

away from heads of containers that have been exposed to intense heat or flame.

Extremely Flammable!

carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide

Use carbon dioxide, dry powder, or foam.

No data available.

6. Accidental Release Measures

Clean Up:

Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry. Stay upwind, out of low areas, and ventilate

closed spaces before entering. Shut off ignition sources; keep flares, smoking or flames out of hazard area. For

small spills, take up liquid with sand, earth, or other noncombustible absorbent material and place in a container

for disposal. For large spills, dike far ahead of spill and use sand, earth, or other noncombustible absorbent

material and then place material in a container for disposal.

Waste Disposal:

Dispose in accordance with applicable local, state, and federal regulations.

7. Handling and Storage

Read carefully all cautions and directions on product label before use. Since empty container retains residue,

follow all label warnings even after container is empty. Dispose of empty container according to all regulations.

Do not reuse the container.

Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not store near flames or at elevated

temperatures.

8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection

For OSHA controlled work place and other regular users. Use only with adequate ventilation under engineered

air control systems designed to prevent exceeding appropriate TLV. For occasional use, where engineered air

control is not feasible, use properly maintained and properly fitted NIOSH approved respirator for organic solvent

vapors. A dust mask does not provide protection against vapors.

Safety glasses, chemical goggles or face shields are recommended to safeguard against potential eye contact,

irritation, or injury. Contact lenses should not be worn while working with chemicals.

Wear chemical resistant gloves suited for use with acetone. Gloves contaminated with product should be

discarded. Promptly remove clothing that becomes soiled with product.

Various application methods can dictate use of additional protective safety equipment, such as impermeable

aprons, etc., to minimize exposure.

Use only with adequate ventilation to prevent build-up of vapors. Open all windows and doors. Use only with a

cross ventilation of moving fresh air across the work area. If strong odor is noticed or your experience slight

dizziness, headache, nausea, or eye-watering - STOP - ventilation is inadequate. Leave area immediately.

A source of clean water should be available in the work area for flushing eyes and skin.

Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area.

Wash hands thoroughly after use.

Before reuse, thoroughly clean any clothing or protective equipment that has been contaminated by prior use.

Discard any clothing or other protective equipment that cannot be decontaminated, such as gloves or shoes.
