Skin
:
Can cause slight irritation. Repeated or prolonged skin contact may cause allergic reactions with susceptible persons. May cause sensitization by skin contact.
Eyes
:
Can cause slight to moderate irritation, redness, tearing and blurred vision.
Ingestion
:
Intake can cause gastrointestinal irritation and nausea.
Chronic exposure
:
This product contains Crystalline (quartz) Silica which has been listed as a human carcinogen by NTP (Group 1) and IARC (Human Carcinogen) and a Suspected Human Carcinogen by ACGIH (catagory A2). Repeated or prolonged over exposure to free respirable Crystalline (quartz) silica can cause silicosis or other delayed and serious lung injury. No exposure to respirable Crystalline (quartz) Silica anticipated with recommended use of product. Existing respiratory or skin ailments may be aggravated by exposure. This product contains solvents. Reports associate repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Reports also indicate that solvents cause liver damage, kidney damage, and mucous membrane irritation. Be warned that intentional misuse by deliberately inhaling the vapors and/or the product contents (a process often called "sniffing") can be harmful or fatal. This product contains isocyanates. Prolonged repeated exposure to isocyanates can lead to skin sensitization. For persons so sensitized even brief exposures to an isocyanate can produce reddening, swelling, rash, or blisters. Similarly, prolonged and repeated exposure to isocyanates can lead to respiratory sensitization. In such individuals, brief exposures to isocyanates at levels well below established exposure limits can produce chemical asthma and nonspecific asthmatic conditions.

4. FIRST AID MEASURES Eye contact
:
Flush eyes with water, lifting upper and lower lids occasionally for 15 minutes. Seek medical attention.
Skin contact
:
Remove contaminated clothing. Wash thoroughly with soap and water. If irritation persists seek medical attention. Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Ingestion
:
Do not induce vomiting without medical advice. If conscious, drink plenty of water. If a person feels unwell or symptoms of skin irritation appear, consult a physician. If a person vomits, place him/her in the recovery position. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation
:
Remove victim from exposure. If difficulty with breathing, administer oxygen. If breathing has stopped administer artificial respiration, preferably mouth-to-mouth. Seek immediate medical attention.

Fire and Explosion Hazards
:
Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat (fire). Cool closed containers exposed to fire with water spray.
Special Fire-fighting Procedures :
As in any fire, wear pressure demand self-contained breathing apparatus (NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear.
6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES Methods for cleaning up
:
Wear appropriate protective equipment (refer to section 8). Take action to eliminate source of leak; prevent from entry into open streams or sewers; contain spill by diking; vacuum up liquid or use absorbent media; remove to storage for disposal and rinse residual stain with water.
7. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling
:
Keep out of reach of children. For personal protection see section 8.
Storage
:
Keep tightly closed.
8. EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION Eye protection
:
Wear as appropriate: safety glasses with side-shields goggles face-shield
Hand protection
:
Wear as appropriate: impervious gloves
Body Protection
:
Wear as appropriate: impervious clothing preventive skin protection
Respiratory protection
:
In case of insufficient ventilation wear suitable respiratory equipment. When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use NIOSH approved respirators.
Hygienic Practices
:
Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. Ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Wash hands before breaks and at the end of workday. When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice.
