EYE CONTACT: Causes severe eye irritation. SKIN CONTACT: May cause moderate skin irritation. May be absorbed through the skin. 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. 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 Page protective 3 of 6 equipment and/or engineering controls should be employed whenever these types of operations are being performed. This product contains an ethylene series glycol ether and/or acetate which has been shown to cause adverse effects on the kidneys, liver, blood and/or blood-forming tissue. This product contains methyl ethyl ketone (MEK). MEK has been shown to cause minor embryotoxic/fetotoxic effects in laboratory animals exposed for prolonged periods at high concentrations via inhalation. The potential for human exposure to high concentrations is expected to be low due to the irritating effects of MEK at low concentrations. 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.
