Obtain medical advice. Eye Contact: No effects expected. If liquid paint contacts the eyes, rinse cautiously for several minutes while holding the eyelids open. Obtain medical attention. Skin Contact: No health effects expected. If irritation does occur, flush with lukewarm, gently flowing water for 5 minutes. If irritation persists, obtain medical advice. Ingestion: No health effects expected. If swallowed, do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs naturally, have victim lean forward to reduce the risk of aspiration. Obtain medical advice or call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician. 4.2 Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed: Exposure to hazardous substances is not expected when handling this product for its intended use. Liquid paint may cause serious eye irritation if in contact with the eyes. From misuse of the marker: breathing vapors may cause drowsiness and dizziness. Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures 5.1 Extinguishing media: For small fires use dry chemicals, carbon dioxide, appropriate foam, or inert gas (nitrogen). For large fires use appropriate foam, water fog, or water spray. Water can be used to cool fire-exposed containers. 5.2 Special hazards arising from the substance: Markers contain a small volume of paint which is a flammable liquid, category 2. Flashpoint 13°C (55°F). 5.3 Advice for firefighters: If involved in a fire, combustion may produce toxic and irritating fumes and gases including carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and/or unburned hydrocarbons. As for any fire, evacuate the area and fight the fire from a safe distance. Firefighters must wear full protective clothing and positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus. Section 6: Accidental Release Measures 6.1 Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures: If large volumes of paint are released shut off or extinguish all sources of ignition. Do not breathe vapors. Ventilate the area. 6.2 Environmental precautions: Prevent the spilled liquid from entering sewers or waterways. 6.3 Methods and material for containment and cleaning up: Stop the spill if it is safe to do so. Absorb any spilled liquid using dry earth, sand or non-combustible absorbent material and transfer to appropriate covered and labeled waste containers. 6.4 Additional Information: See Section 8 for information on selection of personal protective equipment. See Section 13 for information on disposal of spilled product and contaminated absorbents. Section 7: Handling and Storage 7.1 Precautions for safe handling: Keep out of reach of children. Do not use near hot surfaces or flames. 7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities: Store below 50°C. Store away from ignition sources, extreme heat and out of direct sunlight. Keep markers closed when not in use. . Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection 8.1 Control parameters: Occupational Exposure Limits: Measurable airborne concentrations of the component substances are not expected when the markers are used for their intended purpose. Consult local authorities for acceptable exposure limits. Section 8: Exposure Controls/Personal Protection, continued 8.2 Exposure controls: Engineering Controls: General ventilation is normally adequate. Personal Protection: Workers must comply with the Personal Protective Equipment requirements of the workplace. Eye/Face Protection: Not required for normal use. In case of accidental release of large quantities of paint, wear goggles. Skin Protection: Not required for normal use. In case of accidental release of large quantities of paint, wear gloves.
