HAZARD WARNINGS
===============================================================================

HIGHLY FLAMMABLE!  Do not use near flame or hot surfaces.
TOXIC IF INHALED! Use only with adequate ventilation.

==============================================================================
HEALTH HAZARDS AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES
==============================================================================

INHALATION: Maximum chronic exposure level (PEL/TLV) is 300 ppm based on
total volatile organics.  High concentrations can cause headaches,
dizziness and nausea.  Prolonged or repeated overexposure to
hydrocarbon vapors can cause nervous system damage. Intentional or
accidental inhalation of concentrated fumes can be fatal.

If any symptoms of overexposure occur (headache. dizziness, nausea)
discontinue use and get to fresh air immediately.  If any symptoms continue
more than a few minutes go to emergency medical facility for evaluation.

SKIN: may cause defatting and irritation.  If exposure occurs wash exposed
areas with soap and water.

EYES: Solvent sprayed or splashed into eyes will produce painful burning.
Flush with large amount of water.  If any irritation persists, flush
for 15 minutes, lifting the lids occasionally, and go to an emergency
medical facility for recheck.

INGESTION: Naphtha can cause gastritis, nausea and vomiting.  aspiration
into lungs can cause chemical pneumonitis.  In case of ingestion of more
than a few drops go to emergency medical facility for evaluation.  Note to
physician: Do not induce vomiting.  Treat significant ingestions with
activated charcoal.

==============================================================================
FIRE HAZARD DATA
==============================================================================
FLASH POINT: 68F/20C
FLAMMABILITY:  Highly volatile, may form explosive vapors or ignite if heated.
RECOMMENDED FIRE EXTINGUISHER: NFPA class B (e.g. carbon dioxide, all purpose
dry chemical, or alcohol foam)

==============================================================================
SPILL PROCEDURES
==============================================================================
Small spills will tend to evaporate quickly.  Provide adequate ventilation!
Large spills should be collected with absorbent material, placed in a sealed
fireproof container and disposed of as hazardous waste.

==============================================================================
HANDLING AND STORAGE
==============================================================================
Keep container sealed when not in use.  Do not store in any area where
temperatures may exceed 115F/46C.

==============================================================================
EXPOSURE CONTROL AND PERSONAL PROTECTION
==============================================================================
This product is intended for use only in small quantities and in well
ventilated areas, therefore personal protective equipment is not normally
required.  For exposures involving large quantities, or if used in poorly
ventilated areas, PPE may be required as follows:

RESPIRATORY:  In confined space or poorly ventilated areas a respirator
with hydrocarbon vapor cartridge is recommended.

SKIN:  If significant skin exposure is likely, chemically resistant gloves
(i.e. Nitrile, PVC or Neoprene) are recommended.

EYES:  if exposure of eyes to liquid (splash or spray) is possible, chemical
protection goggles are required.
