environment.
See Section 16 for the full text of the R phrases or H statements declared above.
See Section 11 for more detailed information on health effects and symptoms.
There are no additional ingredients present which, within the current knowledge of the supplier and in the concentrations
applicable, are classified as hazardous to health or the environment, are PBTs or vPvBs or have been assigned a
workplace exposure limit and hence require reporting in this section.

4.3 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes to physician : Treat symptomatically. Contact poison treatment specialist immediately if large
quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
Specific treatments : No specific treatment.
6.2 Environmental : Avoid dispersal of spilt material and runoff and contact with soil, waterways, drains
precautions and sewers. Inform the relevant authorities if the product has caused environmental
pollution (sewers, waterways, soil or air). Water polluting material.
When operators, whether spraying or not, have to work inside the spray booth, ventilation is unlikely to be sufficient to
control particulates and solvent vapour in all cases. In such circumstances they should wear a compressed air-fed
respirator during the spraying process and until such time as the particulates and solvent vapour concentration has fallen
below the exposure limits.
7.2 Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities
Store in accordance with local regulations.
Notes on joint storage
Keep away from: oxidising agents, strong alkalis, strong acids.
Additional information on storage conditions
Observe label precautions. Store in a dry, cool and well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat and direct sunlight. Keep
away from sources of ignition. No smoking. Prevent unauthorised access. Containers that have been opened must be
carefully resealed and kept upright to prevent leakage.
Barrier creams may help to protect the exposed areas of the skin but should not be
applied once exposure has occurred.
For right choice of glove materials, with focus on chemical resistance and time of
penetration, seek advice by the supplier of chemical resistant gloves.
The user must check that the final choice of type of glove selected for handling this
product is the most appropriate and takes into account the particular conditions of
use, as included in the user's risk assessment.
Body protection : Personal protective equipment for the body should be selected based on the task
being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by a specialist
before handling this product.
Other skin protection : Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be selected
based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be approved by
a specialist before handling this product.
Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result in
adverse health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the kidneys,
liver and central nervous system. Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the skin.
Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss
of consciousness. Repeated or prolonged contact with the preparation may cause removal of natural fat from the skin,
resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption through the skin. If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may cause
irritation and reversible damage. Swallowing may cause nausea, diarrhoea, vomiting, gastro-intestinal irritation and
chemical pneumonia.
15.2 Chemical Safety : This product contains substances for which Chemical Safety Assessments are still
Assessment required.
Preparation of material for application : Provide a good standard of controlled ventilation (10 to 15 air changes per
hour).
Roller, spreader, flow application : Provide extract ventilation to points where emissions occur.
Spraying - Manual : Provide a good standard of controlled ventilation (10 to 15 air changes per
hour). Wear a respirator conforming to EN140 with Type A/P2 filter or better.
