4. First aid measures
4.1. Description of first aid measures
General
In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention.
Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation
Remove to fresh air, keep patient warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or stopped, give
artificial respiration. If unconscious place in the recovery position and obtain immediate
medical attention. Give nothing by mouth.
Eyes
Make sure to remove any contact lenses from the eyes before rinsing. Promptly wash eyes
with plenty of water while lifting the eye lids. Continue to rinse for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention if any discomfort continues.
Skin
Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use a
recognized skin cleanser.
Ingestion
If accidentally swallowed obtain immediate medical attention. Keep at rest. Do NOT induce
vomiting.

4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
Overview
Exposure to solvent vapor concentrations from the component solvents in excess of the
stated occupational exposure limits 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. Symptoms include headache, nausea, 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 dryness, irritation and possible non-allergic contact dermatitis. Solvents
may also be absorbed through the skin. Splashes of liquid in the eyes may cause irritation
and soreness with possible reversible damage. See section 2 for further details.
Skin
Causes mild skin irritation. (Not adopted by US OSHA)
5. Fire-fighting measures
5.1. Extinguishing media
Recommended extinguishing media; alcohol resistant foam, CO2, powder, water spray.
Do not use; water jet.
5.2. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture
Hazardous decomposition: High temperatures and fires may produce such toxic substances as carbon monoxide and
carbon dioxide.
5.3. Advice for fire-fighters
In the event of fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH Approved Self-contained breathing apparatus with full
face piece operated in the pressure demand or other positive pressure mode. Move container from fire area if it can
be done without risk. Use water to keep fire exposed containers cool and disperse vapors.
ERG Guide No.

6. Accidental release measures
6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8).
6.2. Environmental precautions
Do not allow spills to enter drains or watercourses.
Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet. Promptly remove
soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse.
6.3. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up
Take the personal protective measures listed in section 8.
Contain and absorb spillage with non-combustible materials e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite. Place in closed containers
outside buildings and dispose of according to the Waste Regulations. (See section 13).
Do not allow spills to enter drains or watercourses.
If drains, sewers, streams or lakes are contaminated, inform the local water company immediately. In the case of
contamination of rivers, streams or lakes the Environmental Protection Agency should also be informed.

8.2. Exposure controls
Respiratory
If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit they must use the
appropriate, certified respirators.
Eyes
Safety glasses with side shields
Skin
Wear overalls to keep skin contact to a minimum. Impervious rubber gloves
Engineering Controls
Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable this should be achieved by the
use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. If these are not sufficient to
maintain concentrations of particulates and any vapor below occupational exposure limits
suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
Other Work Practices
Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or
using toilet. Promptly remove soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse.
