If swallowed: Immediately call a poison center/doctor. Do NOT induce vomiting. If on skin: Wash
clothing and wash before reuse. If inhaled: Remove person to fresh air and keep comfortable for
breathing. Call a poison center/doctor if you feel unwell. If in eyes: Rinse cautiously with water for
several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye
irritation persists: Get medical attention. Collect spillage.
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.

General information
Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing. Oxygen or
artificial respiration if needed. Call a POISON CENTER or doctor/physician if you feel unwell.
Remove contaminated clothing immediately and wash skin with soap and water. In case of
eczema or other skin disorders: Seek medical attention and take along these instructions. Wash

equipment/instructions
General fire hazards
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.

6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions,
protective equipment and
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. Vapors are heavier than air and may spread along floors. Wear appropriate protective
equipment and clothing during clean-up. Avoid inhalation of vapors and spray mists. Avoid
breathing gas. Emergency personnel need self-contained breathing 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. This product is miscible in water.
Stop the flow of material, if this is without risk. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece).
Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. For waste disposal, see section 13 of
the SDS. Prevent entry into waterways, sewer, basements or confined areas.
Avoid release to the environment. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Avoid
discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground. Inform appropriate managerial or
supervisory personnel of all environmental releases.
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 inhalation of vapors
and spray mists. Avoid breathing gas. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing. Avoid prolonged
or repeated contact with skin. Avoid prolonged exposure. Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated
area. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
Avoid release to the environment. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. For product usage
instructions, please see the product label.
Conditions for safe storage,
including any incompatibilities
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. Store in a well-ventilated place. Store away from
incompatible materials (see Section 10 of the SDS).

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. Eye
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. Neoprene.
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 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. Contaminated work clothing should not
be allowed out of the workplace.
