In case of burn by contact with melted product, immediately flush the melted product on skin with plenty of cold water. Do not use solvents. Do not remove solidified prod- uct because skin can be easily torn. › INGESTION: It is difficult to occur in normal conditions of use. In any case, ingestion of solid product is not expected to be hazardous. If symptoms develop and persist, get medical attention. › NOTE FOR MEDICAL SERVICES: Burns must be treated as thermal burns. The product will remove during the cure, so it is advisable not to remove it immediately after the burn is produced. 5 5.1. Extinguishing media: 5.2.
