Precautions for safe handling
Advice on Safe Handling Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Use personal
protection recommended in Section 8. Use only with adequate ventilation. Do not breathe
vapors. Wear eye/face protection. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling.
Avoid contact with skin, eyes or clothing. While handling product keep out of reach of

Appropriate engineering controls
Engineering Controls Provide sufficient general &/or local exhaust ventilation to maintain exposure below
recommended exposure limits. Vapors are heavier than air & may spread along floors.
Provide fresh air entry during application & curing. Eye wash fountain should be located in
immediate work area.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/Face Protection Use approved safety goggles or safety glasses. If necessary, refer toappropriate
regulations & standards.
Skin and Body Protection Skin: Wear chemical impervious gloves (eg: Nitrile or Neoprene). Use triple gloves for spill
response. If necessary, refer to appropriate regulations & standards.
Body: Use protection appropriate for task (eg: lab coat, coveralls, Tyvek suit). If necessary,
refer to OSHA Technical Manual (Sec. VII: Personal Protective Equipment) orappropriate
Standards of Canada. Use foot protection, as described in appropriate regulations &
standards.
Respiratory Protection If watering of eyes experienced, headache or dizziness or if used in workplace & air
monitoring indicates vapor levels above exposure limits, use NIOSH approved respiratory
protection in accordance w/ Federal, State & Local requirements. Consult safety equipment
supplier & OSHA Regulation 29 CFR 1910.134 for respirator requirements.
