4 – First Aid Measures
Ingestion (Swallowed): While aspiration is unlikely due to viscosity, do not induce vomiting. Rinse mouth
with water. Call a physician, poison control center, or the WD-40 Safety Hotline at 1-888-324-7596.

Inhalation (Breathing): If irritation is experienced, move to fresh air. Get medical attention if irritation or other
symptoms develop and persist.
Signs and Symptoms of Exposure: May cause moderate eye and skin irritation. Prolonged or repeated skin
contact may cause defatting dermatitis.
Indication of Immediate Medical Attention/Special Treatment Needed: Immediate medical attention is not
required.
5 – Fire Fighting Measures
Suitable (and unsuitable) Extinguishing Media: Use water fog, dry chemical, carbon dioxide or foam. Do
not use water jet or flooding amounts of water. Burning product will float on the surface and spread fire.
Specific Hazards Arising from the Chemical: Combustion will produce carbon oxides, sulfur oxides,
phosphorus oxides, smoke fumes and unburned hydrocarbons.
Special Protective Equipment and Precautions for Fire-Fighters: Firefighters should always wear positive
pressure self-contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing in areas where chemicals are used
and stored. Cool fire-exposed containers with water.
6 – Accidental Release Measures
Personal Precautions, Protective Equipment and Emergency Procedures: Wear appropriate protective
clothing (see Section 8). Eliminate all sources of ignition and ventilate area.
Methods and Materials for Containment/Cleanup: Contain and collect liquid with an inert absorbent and
place in a container for disposal. Clean spill area thoroughly. Report spills to authorities as required.
7 – Handling and Storage
Precautions for Safe Handling: Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Avoid breathing oil mists. Use with
adequate ventilation. Keep away from heat, hot surfaces and open flames. Wash thoroughly with soap and
water after handling. Keep containers closed when not in use. Keep out of the reach of children.
Conditions for Safe Storage: Store in a cool, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials. NFPA
