2. Hazards Identification

Note: This product is a consumer product and is labeled in accordance with the Consumer Product Safety
Commission regulations and not OSHA regulations. The requirements for the labeling of consumer products take
precedence over OSHA labeling so the actual product label will not contain the OSHA label elements shown below
on this SDS.
Note: This product has been tested for sustained combustibility by Stresau Laboratory, Inc. Due to the nature of the
product, it does not Sustain combustibility. It will not start a fire from sparks. Due its water-based composition, this
product is capable of stopping a fire.
