Hazard(s) not otherwise
classified (HNOC)
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Do not
spray on an open flame or other ignition source. Do not apply while equipment is energized.
Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Extinguish all flames, pilot lights
and heaters. Vapors will accumulate readily and may ignite. Use only with adequate ventilation;
maintain ventilation during use and until all vapors are gone. Open doors and windows or use
other means to ensure a fresh air supply during use and while product is drying. If you experience
any symptoms listed on this label, increase ventilation or leave the area. Do not breathe gas. Do
not breathe mist or vapor. Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face
protection. Avoid release to the environment.
If swallowed: Immediately call a poison center/doctor. Do NOT induce vomiting. If inhaled:
Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for breathing. Call a poison center/doctor if you
feel unwell. If exposed or concerned: Get medical attention.
Store in a well-ventilated place. Store locked up. Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to
temperatures exceeding 50°C/122°F. Exposure to high temperature may cause can to burst.
Dispose of contents/container in accordance with local/regional/national regulations.
Static accumulating flammable liquid can become electrostatically charged even in bonded and
grounded equipment. Sparks may ignite liquid and vapor. May cause flash fire or explosion.

General information
Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Call a POISON
CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
Wash off with soap and plenty of water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Take off contaminated clothing and wash before reuse.
Rinse with water. Get medical attention if irritation develops and persists.
Call a physician or poison control center immediately. Do not induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs,
keep head low so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs. Aspiration may cause
pulmonary edema and pneumonitis.
Vapors have a narcotic effect and may cause headache, fatigue, dizziness and nausea. May
cause drowsiness or dizziness. Prolonged exposure may cause chronic effects.
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically.
IF exposed or concerned: Get medical advice/attention. Ensure that medical personnel are aware
of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to protect themselves.
5. Fire-fighting measures
Suitable extinguishing media
Unsuitable extinguishing
media
Water spray. Water fog. Foam. Dry chemical powder, carbon dioxide, sand or earth may be used
for small fires only.
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.

equipment/instructions
General fire hazards
Contents under pressure. Pressurized container may explode when exposed to heat or flame. This
product is a poor conductor of electricity and can become electrostatically charged. If sufficient
charge is accumulated, ignition of flammable mixtures can occur. Static electricity accumulation
may be significantly increased by the presence of small quantities of water or other contaminants.
Material will float and may ignite on surface of water.
Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with
face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
In case of fire: Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without
risk. Containers should be cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure build up. In the event of
fire, cool tanks with water spray.
Extremely flammable aerosol.
6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
emergency procedures
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of
low areas. Remove all possible sources of ignition in the surrounding area. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment. Do not breathe gas. Do not breathe mist or vapor. Do not touch
damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ventilate
closed spaces before entering them. Use appropriate containment to avoid environmental
contamination. Local authorities should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained. For
personal protection, see section 8 of the SDS.
Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep
combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. This product is miscible in water.
Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Collect spillage. Dike far ahead of spill for later
disposal. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece). Clean surface thoroughly to remove
residual contamination. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas. For
Environmental precautions
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
Avoid release to the environment. Contact local authorities in case of spillage to drain/aquatic
environment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate water. Avoid
discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Use appropriate containment to avoid
environmental contamination.
Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Minimize fire risks from flammable and combustible materials (including
combustible dust and static accumulating liquids) or dangerous reactions with incompatible
materials. Handling operations that can promote accumulation of static charges include but are not
limited to: mixing, filtering, pumping at high flow rates, splash filling, creating mists or sprays, tank
and container filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch loading, vacuum truck operations.
Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Do not use if spray button is missing
or defective. Do not spray on a naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke
expose containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. Use caution around
energized equipment. The metal container will conduct electricity if it contacts a live source. This
may result in injury to the user from electrical shock and/or flash fire. Do not breathe mist or vapor.
Do not breathe gas. Avoid contact during pregnancy/while nursing. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use
only in well-ventilated areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. When using, do not
eat, drink or smoke. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. Observe good industrial hygiene
practices. Avoid release to the environment. Do not empty into drains. For product usage
instructions, please see the product label.
Level 3 Aerosol.
Pressurized container. Protect from sunlight and do not expose to temperatures exceeding
50°C/122 °F. Do not puncture, incinerate or crush. Do not handle or store near an open flame,
heat or other sources of ignition. This material can accumulate static charge which may cause
spark and become an ignition source. Avoid spark promoters. These alone may be insufficient to
remove static electricity. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store away from incompatible materials
(see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep out of the reach of children.

Appropriate engineering
controls
Good general ventilation (typically 10 air changes per hour) should be used. Ventilation rates
should be matched to conditions. If applicable, use process enclosures, local exhaust ventilation,
or other engineering controls to maintain airborne levels below recommended exposure limits. If
exposure limits have not been established, maintain airborne levels to an acceptable level.
Individual protection measures, such as personal protective equipment
Eye/face protection
Wear safety glasses with side shields (or goggles).
Skin protection
Hand protection
Other
Respiratory protection
Wear protective gloves such as: Nitrile. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Viton®.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
If engineering controls are not feasible or if exposure exceeds the applicable exposure limits, use a
NIOSH-approved cartridge respirator with an organic vapor cartridge. Use a self-contained
breathing apparatus in confined spaces and for emergencies. Air monitoring is needed to
determine actual employee exposure levels.
Thermal hazards
General hygiene
considerations
Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.
When using, do not eat, drink or smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such
as washing after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely
