Explanation of Carcinogenicity:LONG TERM TESTS SHOW THAT SIMILAR
PETROLEUM DISTILLATES HAVE PRODUCED SKIN, LIVER & KIDNEY TUMORS IN
LABORATORY ANIMALS.
Effects of Overexposure:IF INHALED, MAY CAUSE IRRITATION, DIZZINESS,
LOSS OF COORDINATION, COMA & DEATH. MILD EYE IRRITATION.
PROLONGED/REPEATED SKIN CONTACT MAY CAUSE MODERATE IRRITATION & MAY
RESULT IN ABSORPTION & HAS TOX IC EFFECTS ON LIVER, KIDNEY, LUNGS &
INTESTINAL ORGANS. ORALLY CAN CAUSE NAUSEA, VOMITING, DIARRHEA &
