Other Precautions:SINCE EMPTIED CONTAINERS RETAIN PRODUCT RESIDUE,
FOLLOW LABEL WARNINGS EVEN AFTER CONTAINER IS EMPTIED. RESIDUAL
VAPORS MAY EXPLODE ON IGNITION; DO NOT CUT, DRILL, GRIND OR WELD ON
OR NEAR THIS CONTAI NER.

Respiratory Protection:AN APPROVED RESPIRATOR MUST BE WORN IF EXPOSURE
IS LIKELY TO EXCEED RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE LIMITS. RESPIRATOR TYPE:
ORGANIC VAPOR.
Ventilation:GOOD GENERAL VENTILATION (TYPICALLY 10 AIR CHANGES PER
HOUR) SHOULD BE USED. VENTILATION RATES SHOULD BE MATCHED TO
CONDITIONS.
Protective Gloves:IMPERMEABLE GLOVES ARE RECOMMENDED.
Eye Protection:SAFETY GLASSES WITH SIDE SHIELDS (OR GOGGLES) ARE
RECOMMENDED.
Other Protective Equipment:LOCAL EXHAUST VENTILATION OR AN ENCLOSED
HANDLING SYSTEM MAY BE NEEDED TO CONTROL AIRBORNE LEVELS BELOW
RECOMMENDED EXPOSURE LIMITS. RECOMMENDED DECONTAMINATION
FACILITIES:EYE BATH & WASHING FACILITIES.
Work Hygienic Practices:NO DATA PROVIDED BY RESPONSIBLE PARTY.
Supplemental Safety and Health
PREVENTIVE MEASURES: AVOID BREATHING VAPOR AT CONCENTRATIONS GREATER
THAN THE EXPOSURE LIMITS. AVOID PROLONGED OR REPEATED CONTACT WITH
SKIN. KEEP CONTAINER CLOSED. USE WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
