Warning
Flammable aerosol. Contains gas under pressure; may explode if heated. Harmful to aquatic life.
Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces. - No smoking. Do not spray on an open
flame or other ignition source. Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Use
supply during use and while product is drying. If you experience any symptoms listed on this label,
increase ventilation or leave the area. Avoid release to the environment.
Wash hands after handling.
Store in a well-ventilated place. 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.

Indication of immediate
medical attention and special
treatment needed
General information
If symptoms develop move victim to fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. If breathing
stops, provide artificial respiration. Get medical attention if symptoms persist.
Rinse skin with water/shower. 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.
In the unlikely event of swallowing contact a physician or poison control center. Rinse mouth. Do
not induce vomiting without advice from poison control center. If vomiting occurs, keep head low
so that stomach content doesn't get into the lungs.
Direct contact with eyes may cause temporary irritation.
Provide general supportive measures and treat symptomatically.
Ensure that medical personnel are aware of the material(s) involved, and take precautions to
protect themselves.

Water. Foam. Dry chemicals. Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Do not use water jet as an extinguisher, as this will spread the fire.
Contents under pressure. Pressurized container may explode when exposed to heat or flame.
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. Cool containers exposed to heat with water spray and remove container, if no risk is involved.
Containers should be cooled with water to prevent vapor pressure build up.

emergency procedures
Methods and materials for
containment and cleaning up
Environmental precautions
Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of
low areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Do not touch damaged containers or
spilled material unless wearing appropriate protective clothing. Ventilate closed spaces before
entering them. 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. The product is immiscible with
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 waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
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.
7. Handling and storage
Precautions for safe handling
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. Avoid prolonged or repeated
contact with skin. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use only in well-ventilated areas. Wear appropriate
personal protective equipment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. Avoid release to the
environment. Do not empty into drains. For product usage instructions, please see the product
label.

including any incompatibilities
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. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store away from
incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS). Keep out of the reach of children.

Biological limit values
Appropriate engineering
controls
No biological exposure limits noted for the ingredient(s).
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: Neoprene. Nitrile.
Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
When workers are facing concentrations above the exposure limit they must use appropriate
certified respirators. 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 smoke. Always observe good personal hygiene measures, such as washing
after handling the material and before eating, drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work
clothing and protective equipment to remove contaminants.
