death. May cause additional symptoms listed under inhalation.
MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED
Diseases of the skin, liver, kidneys, eyes, lungs, cardiovascular
system, and respiratory system.
PRIMARY ROUTE OF EXPOSURE
Inhalation, ingestion, and dermal.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 5. FIRST AID MEASURES
-----------------------------------------------------------------
INHALATION
If user experiences breathing difficulty, move to air free of
vapors. Administer oxygen or artificial respiration until medical
assistance can be rendered.
SKIN CONTACT
Wash with soap and large quantities of water and seek medical
attention if irritation from contact persists.
EYE CONTACT
Flush with large quantities of water for at least 15 minutes and
seek immediate medical attention.
INGESTION
Call your poison control center, hospital emergency room or
physician immediately for instructions to induce vomiting.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN
POISON. THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS METHANOL.
Methanol is metabolized to formaldehyde and formic acid. These
metabolites may cause metabolic acidosis, visual disturbances and
blindness. Since metabolism is required for these toxic symptoms,
their onset may be delayed from 6 to 30 hours following ingestion.
Ethanol competes for the same metabolic pathway and has been used
as an antidote. Methanol is effectively removed by hemodialysis.
This formula is registered with POISINDEX.
Call your local poison control center for further information.

FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES
Self-contained respiratory protection should be provided for
PAGE 5
MSDS NO. 805.3
fire fighters fighting fires in buildings or confined areas. Storage
containers exposed to fire should be kept cool with water spray to
prevent pressure build-up. Stay away from heads of containers that
have been exposed to intense heat or flame.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS
DANGER! FLAMMABLE. KEEP AWAY FROM HEAT, SPARKS, FLAME, AND ALL OTHER
SOURCES OF IGNITION. Do not smoke.
Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves,
heaters, electric motors and all other sources of ignition during
use and until all vapors are gone. Beware of static electricity that
may be generated by synthetic clothing and other sources.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 7. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CLEAN-UP
Keep unnecessary people away; isolate hazard area and deny entry.
Stay upwind, out of low areas, and ventilate closed spaces before
entering. Shut off ignition sources; keep flares, smoking or flames
out of hazard area. SMALL SPILLS: take up liquid with sand, earth
or other noncombustible absorbent material and place in a plastic
container where applicable. LARGE SPILLS: dike far ahead of spill
for later disposal.
For transportation related spills contact Chemtrec at 1-800-424-9300
for emergency assistance.
WASTE DISPOSAL
Dispose in accordance with applicable local, state and federal
regulations.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 8. HANDLING AND STORAGE
---------------------------------------------------------------------
STORAGE
Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store in a cool,
dry place. Do not store near flames or at elevated temperatures.
HANDLING
Read carefully all cautions and directions on product label before
use. Since empty container retains residue, follow all label
warnings even after container is empty. Dispose of empty container
according to all regulations. Do not reuse this container.

TRANSPORTATION
For D.O.T. information, contact W.M. Barr Technical Services
Department.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 10. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
----------------------------------------------------------------------
VENTILATION PROTECTION
Use only with adequate ventilation to prevent build-up of vapors.
Open all windows and doors. Use only with a cross ventilation of
moving fresh air across the work area. If strong odor is noticed or
you experience slight dizziness, headache, nausea, or eye-watering -
PAGE 6
MSDS NO. 805.3
STOP - ventilation is inadequate. Leave area immediately.
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION
For OSHA controlled work place and other regular users - Use only
with adequate ventilation under engineered air control systems
designed to prevent exceeding appropriate TLV. For occasional use,
where engineered air control is not feasible, use properly main-
tained and properly fitted NIOSH approved respirator for organic
solvent vapors. A dust mask does not provide protection against
vapors.
SKIN PROTECTION
Wear impermeable gloves. Gloves contaminated with product should be
discarded. Promptly remove clothing that becomes soiled with product.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SECTION 10. EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
EYE PROTECTION
Safety glasses, chemical goggles or face shields are recommended
to safeguard against potential eye contact, irritation, or injury.
Contact lenses should not be worn while working with chemicals.
OTHER PROTECTION
Various application methods can dictate use of additional protective
safety equipment, such as impermeable aprons, etc., to minimize
exposure. A source of clean water should be available in the work
area for flushing eyes and skin. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the
work area. Wash hands thoroughly after use. Before reuse,
thoroughly clean any clothing or protective equipment that has been
contaminated by prior use. Discard any clothing or other
protective equipment that cannot be decontaminated, such as gloves
or shoes.
