associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous
system damage. Overexposure to xylene in laboratory animals has been associated with liver abnormalities,
kidney, lung, spleen, eye and blood damage as well as reproductive disorders. Effects in humans, due to chronic
overexposure, have included liver, cardiac abnormalities and nervous system damage. Contains carbon black.
Chronic inflammation, lung fibrosis, and lung tumors have been observed in some rats experimentally exposed for
long periods of time to excessive concentrations of carbon black and several insoluble fine dust particles. Tumors
have not been observed in other animal species (i.e., mouse and hamster) under similar circumstances and study
conditions. Epidemiological studies of North American workers show no evidence of clinically significant adverse
health effects due to occupational exposure to carbon black.
Carbon black is listed as a Group 2B-"Possibly carcinogenic to humans" by IARC and is proposed to be listed as
A4- "not classified as a human carcinogen" by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists.
Significant exposure is not anticipated during brush application or drying. Risk of overexposure depends on
duration and level of exposure to dust from repeated sanding of surfaces or spray mist and the actual concentration
of carbon black in the formula.
Primary Route(s) Of Entry: Skin Contact, Skin Absorption, Inhalation, Ingestion, Eye Contact
First Aid - Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes holding eyelids open.
Get medical attention. Do NOT allow rubbing of eyes or keeping eyes closed.
First Aid - Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water. Get medical attention if irritation develops or persists.
First Aid - Inhalation: If you experience difficulty in breathing, leave the area to obtain fresh air. If continued
difficulty is experienced, get medical assistance immediately.
First Aid - Ingestion: Aspiration hazard: Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth because this material
can enter the lungs and cause severe lung damage. Get immediate medical attention.
Flash Point: -156 F (Setaflash)
Extinguishing Media: Film Forming Foam, Carbon Dioxide, Dry Chemical, Dry Sand, Water Fog
Unusual Fire And Explosion Hazards: Perforation of the pressurized container may cause bursting of the can.
FLASH POINT IS LESS THAN 20 °. F. - EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE LIQUID AND VAPOR! Water spray may be
ineffective. Closed containers may explode when exposed to extreme heat. Vapors may form explosive mixtures
with air. Vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Isolate from heat, electrical equipment, sparks and
open flame. Keep containers tightly closed.
Special Firefighting Procedures: Evacuate area and fight fire from a safe distance.
Steps To Be Taken If Material Is Released Or Spilled: Contain spilled liquid with sand or earth. DO NOT use
combustible materials such as sawdust. Remove all sources of ignition, ventilate area and remove with inert
absorbent and non-sparking tools. Dispose of according to local, state (provincial) and federal regulations. Do not
incinerate closed containers.
