Irritating to skin. Product has a defatting effect on skin. Prolonged or repeated contact with skin may cause irritation, redness and dermatitis. Spray mists irritate the respiratory system, and cause coughing and difficulties in breathing. In high concentrations, vapours may be irritating to the respiratory system. In high concentrations, vapours and spray mists are narcotic and may cause headache, fatigue, dizziness and nausea. In case of overexposure, organic solvents may depress the central nervous system causing dizziness and intoxication, and at very high concentrations unconsciousness and death. Droplets of the product aspirated into the lungs through ingestion or vomiting may cause a serious chemical pneumonia. May cause sensitisation or allergic reactions in sensitive individuals. Environmental The product contains a substance which is very toxic to aquatic organisms and which may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. Physicochemical The product is highly flammable, and explosive vapours/air mixtures may be formed even at normal room temperatures. Vapours are heavier than air and may travel along the floor and accumulate in the bottom of containers. Vapours may be ignited by a spark, a hot surface or an ember.
