EYE CONTACT: Causes severe eye irritation. SKIN CONTACT: May cause skin burns. Prolonged or repeated contact may cause an allergic skin reaction. INHALATION: Vapor and/or spray mist may be harmful if inhaled. Vapor irritates eyes, nose, and throat. 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. Possible mutagenic hazard. Predictive laboratory tests with cultured media on an ingredient(s) contained in this product indicate potential damage to genetic material. 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 Page appropriate personal protective equipment and/or engineering controls should be employed whenever these types of operations are being performed. This product contains coal tar pitch which has been shown to cause skin cancer in laboratory animals after chronic skin painting studies. Prolonged or repeated contact with coal tar pitch may make the skin unusually sensitive to light rays. This product contains talc. In a lifetime inhalation study female rats exposed to an elevated respirable concentration (9 times the Permissible Exposure Limit) of cosmetic grade talc developed lung cancer. To date, no U.S. regulatory agency has classified talc as a carcinogen based on this data. Ethylbenzene has been reported by NTP to cause cancer in laboratory animals following a chronic (2 year) inhalation exposure. Dose levels of 75, 250 and 750 ppm were used, with evidence of carcinogenicity found in the kidneys of rats and the lung and liver of mice at 750 ppm. The No Observed Effect Level (NOEL) was 75 ppm. The relevance of these findings to humans is uncertain, but appropriate safeguards should be employed to reduce or eliminate inhalation exposure to ethylbenzene. 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.
