SKIN PROTECTION: Use gloves to prevent prolonged skin contact. Nitrile or Neoprene gloves may afford adequate skin protection.
EYE PROTECTION: Use safety eyewear designed to protect against splash of liquids.
OTHER PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT: Refer to safety supervisor or industrial hygienist for further guidance regarding types of
personal protective equipment and their applications.
HYGIENIC PRACTICES: Wash thoroughly with soap and water before eating, drinking or smoking. Remove contaminated clothing
immediately and launder before reuse.

STABILITY: This product is stable under normal storage conditions.
11. Toxicological Information
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - EYE CONTACT: Substance causes moderate eye irritation.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - SKIN CONTACT: Substance may cause slight skin irritation.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INHALATION: High gas, vapor, mist or dust concentrations may be harmful if inhaled. Avoid
breathing fumes, spray, vapors, or mist. High vapor concentrations are irritating to the eyes, nose, throat and lungs. Prolonged or
excessive inhalation may cause respiratory tract irritation.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - INGESTION: Irritating to the nose, throat and respiratory tract. Harmful if swallowed.
EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE - CHRONIC HAZARDS: IARC lists Ethylbenzene as a possible human carcinogen (group 2B).
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain 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. Contains Titanium Dioxide. Titanium Dioxide is
listed as a Group 2B-"Possibly carcinogenic to humans" by IARC. No significant exposure to Titanium Dioxide is thought to occur
during the use of products in which Titanium Dioxide is bound to other materials, such as in paints 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 Titanium Dioxide in the formula. (Ref: IARC Monograph, Vol. 93, 2010)
