Supplemental label
elements
DELAYED EFFECTS FROM LONG TERM OVEREXPOSURE. Contains solvents which
can cause permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by
deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents can be harmful or fatal. VAPOR
AND SPRAY MIST HARMFUL. Gives off harmful vapor of solvents and isocyanates.
DO NOT USE IF YOU HAVE CHRONIC (LONG-TERM) LUNG OR BREATHING
PROBLEMS, OR IF YOU HAVE EVER HAD A REACTION TO ISOCYANATES. USE
ONLY WITH ADEQUATE VENTILATION. WHERE OVERSPRAY IS PRESENT, A
POSITIVE PRESSURE AIR SUPPLIED RESPIRATOR (NIOSH approved) SHOULD BE
WORN TO PREVENT EXPOSURE. IF UNAVAILABLE, AN APPROPRIATE
PROPERLY FITTED APPROVED NIOSH VAPOR/PARTICULATE RESPIRATOR MAY
BE EFFECTIVE. Follow directions for respirator use. Wear the respirator for the whole
time of spraying and until all vapors and mists are gone. If you have any breathing
problems during use, LEAVE THE AREA and get fresh air. If problems remain or

identification
CAS number/other identifiers
Occupational exposure limits, if available, are listed in Section 8.
Any concentration shown as a range is to protect confidentiality or is due to batch variation.
Get medical attention. If necessary, call a poison center or physician.

mask or self-contained breathing apparatus. It may be dangerous to the person
providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Get medical attention. If necessary,
call a poison center or physician. In case of inhalation of decomposition products in a
fire, symptoms may be delayed. The exposed person may need to be kept under
medical surveillance for 48 hours. In the event of any complaints or symptoms, avoid
further exposure.

Section 5. Fire-fighting measures
Promptly isolate the scene by removing all persons from the vicinity of the incident if
there is a fire. No action shall be taken involving any personal risk or without suitable
training. Move containers from fire area if this can be done without risk. Use water
spray to keep fire-exposed containers cool.
Hazardous thermal
decomposition products
Specific hazards arising
from the chemical
Decomposition products may include the following materials:
carbon dioxide
carbon monoxide
nitrogen oxides
Extremely flammable aerosol. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. In
a fire or if heated, a pressure increase will occur and the container may burst, with the
risk of a subsequent explosion. Gas may accumulate in low or confined areas or travel
a considerable distance to a source of ignition and flash back, causing fire or explosion.
Bursting aerosol containers may be propelled from a fire at high speed.
Special protective
equipment for fire-fighters
Use an extinguishing agent suitable for the surrounding fire.

Special protective actions
for fire-fighters
Section 6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures
In the case of aerosols being ruptured, care should be taken due to the rapid escape of
the pressurized contents and propellant. If a large number of containers are ruptured,
treat as a bulk material spillage according to the instructions in the clean-up section.
Shut off all ignition sources. No flares, smoking or flames in hazard area.
For non-emergency
personnel
If specialized clothing is required to deal with the spillage, take note of any information in
Section 8 on suitable and unsuitable materials. See also the information in "For nonemergency personnel".
