UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: When this product is used, the overspray and other combustible materials such as paint booth filters, paint scrapings, rags, masking materials, etc., contaminated with the coating material can present a spontaneous combustion hazard if they are not handled and disposed of properly. Wetting the contaminated materials thoroughly with water after use and placing them into a sealed metal refuse or waste container without packing them tightly will minimize the potential for spontaneous combustion. Keep this product away from heat, sparks, flame, and other sources of ignition (i.e., pilot lights, electric motors, static electricity). Invisible vapors can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Do not smoke while using this product. Keep containers tightly closed when not in use. Closed containers may explode when overheated. Do nct apply to hot surfaces. Toxic gases may form when this product comes in contact with extreme heat. SPECIAL F:RE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: Water spray may be ineffective. Water spray may be used to cool closed containers to prevent pressure build -up and possible autoignition or explosion when exposed to extreme heat. If water is used, fog nozzles are preferable. Fire- fighters should wear self- contained breathing apparatus and full protective clothing. SECTION 6 - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Provide maximum ventilation. Only personnel equipped with proper respiratory, skin, and eye protection should be permitted in the area. Remove all sources of ignition. Take up spilled material with sand, vermiculite, or other noncombustible absorbent material and place in clean, empty containers for disposal. Only the spilled materia= and the absorbant should be placed in this container. WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Waste material must be disposed of in accordance with federal, state, provincial, and local environmental control regulations. Empty containers should be recycled or disposed of through an approved waste management facility. SECTION 7 - HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING AND STORAGE PRECAUTIONS: Do not store above 120 degrees F.(48 degrees C.). Store large quantities in buildings designed and protected for storage of NFPA Class IB flammable liquids. OTHER PRECAUTIONS: Vapors may collect in low areas. If this material is part of a multiple component system, read the Material Safety Data Sheet(s) for the other component or components before blending as the resulting mixture may have the hazards of all of its parts. Containers should be grounded when pouring. Avoid free fall of liquids in excess of a few inches. SECTION 8 - EXPOSURE CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTION PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT FOR: EYE PROTECTION: Wear chemical -type splash goggles when possibility exists for eye contact due to splashing or spraying liquid, airborne particles, or vapors.
