EYE CONTACT: Causes eye irritation. SKIN CONTACT: May cause slight skin irritation. INHALATION: Vapor and/or spray mist may be harmful if inhaled. Sanding and grinding dusts may be harmful if inhaled. Repeated exposure to high vapor concentrations may cause irritation of the respiratory system and permanent brain and nervous system damage. CHRONIC OVEREXPOSURE: Avoid long-term and repeated contact. This product contains crystalline silica which has been classified as a human carcinogen by IARC. Long-term exposures may also lead to a disabling lung condition known as silicosis. The risk depends on the duration and level of exposure to dust from sanding surfaces or mist from spray applications. Use of appropriate personal protective equipment and/or engineering controls should be employed whenever these types of operations are being performed. This product contains titanium dioxide. Animals inhaling massive quantities of titanium dioxide dust in a long-term study developed lung tumors. Studies with humans involved in manufacture of this pigment indicate no increased risk of cancer from exposure. Potential for inhalation of titanium dioxide dusts from coatings is very limited. Since overexposures are not expected, there is no significant hazard for man. This product contains methyl ethyl ketoxime (MEKO). Studies in animals indicate that overexposure can cause adverse effects in spleen and kidney, anemia, liver cancer and cataracts. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF OVEREXPOSURE: Eye watering, headaches, nausea, dizziness, and loss of coordination are indications that solvent levels are too high. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents can be harmful or fatal. Redness, itching, burning sensation and visual disturbances may indicate excessive eye contact. Dryness, itching, cracking, burning, redness, and swelling are conditions associated with excessive skin contact. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE: Not applicable. TOXICOLOGICALLY SYNERGISTIC PRODUCTS: Not available
