Section IV - FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD DATA
DOT Category: NOT APPLICABLE
Flash point: NOT APPLICABLE
Lower explosion limit (Product): NOT APPLICABLE
Extinguishing media: NON-COMBUSTIBLE, however, for dry solids, use of water,
foam, carbon dioxide, or dry chemical fire fighting apparatus.
Unusual fire and explosion hazards: CLOSED CONTAINERS exposed to extreme heat
may rupture due to pressure build-up. CONTENTS may spatter if temperature
exceeds boiling point (212°F). Dried films are capable of burning.
Special fire fighting procedures: The use of SELF-CONTAINED breathing apparatus
is recommended for fire fighters. WATER may be useful in keeping fire-exposed
containers cool.
Section V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA
Threshold limit value: NOT ESTABLISHED
EFFECTS OF OVER EXPOSURE (FOR PRODUCT):
EYES: Trace amounts of ammonia and residue monomer VAPORS MAY BE IRRITATING TO
THE EYES ESPECIALLY IN POORLY VENTILATED AREAS.
SKIN: This product CAN CAUSE SKIN IRRITATION upon prolonged or repeated contact.
BREATHING: ADVERSE HEALTH EFFECTS FROM VAPORS OR SPRAY MISTS in poorly
ventilated areas may include IRRITATION OF THE MUCOUS MEMBRANES OF THE NOSE,
THROAT, RESPIRATORY TRACT and symptoms of HEADACHE AND NAUSEA.
SWALLOWING: Can cause GASTROINTESTINAL IRRITATION, NAUSEA, VOMITING and
DIARRHEA.

Section V - HEALTH HAZARD DATA (Continued)
EMERGENCY AND FIRST AID PROCEDURES:
IF IN EYES: If this product comes in contact with eyes, FLUSH WITH LARGE
QUANTITIES OF WATER for at least 15 minutes lifting upper and lower lids
occasionally. SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.
IF ON SKIN: THOROUGHLY WASH EXPOSED AREA WITH SOAP AND LARGE QUANTITIES OF
WATER FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING and launder before
use. Seek medical attention if irritation from contact persists.
IF BREATHED: Individual may experience dizziness or light-headedness when
working in poorly ventilated areas. SEEK AIR FREE FROM VAPORS.
IF SWALLOWED: IF VICTIM IS CONSCIOUS INDUCE VOMITING AT ONCE BY GIVING TWO (2)
GLASSES OF WATER TO DRINK AND PLACE FINGER AT BACK OF VICTIM'S THROAT. CALL
PHYSICIAN OR POISON CONTROL CENTER IMMEDIATELY.
Section VI - REACTIVITY DATA
STABILITY: Stable
CONDITIONS TO AVOID:
INCOMPATIBILITY
(Materials to avoid): No hazardous reactions are expected to occur under
normal usage conditions. However, product properties may be altered by mixing
some materials.
HAZARDOUS
DECOMPOSITION: Thermal decomposition may yield oxides of carbon, toxic
monomer fumes, and oxides of nitrogen.
HAZARDOUS
POLYMERIZATION: Will not occur.
Section VII - SPILL AND LEAK PROCEDURES
STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED:
Keep unnecessary people away. Flush spilled material into suitable retaining
area containers with large quantities of water. Small amounts of spilled
material may be absorbed into appropriate absorbent. Prevent spilled mixture
from entering sewers, storm drains, other unauthorized treatment/drainage
systems, and natural waterways.
WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD:
Dispose of product in accordance with applicable local, county, state and
federal regulations.

Section VIII - SPECIAL PROTECTION INFORMATION
RESPIRATORY PROTECTION: None required if GOOD ventilation is maintained. IF
HIGH VAPOR CONCENTRATIONS - USE MSA/NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR WITH FILTERS
DESIGNED TO REMOVE VAPORS AND PARTICULATES.
VENTILATION: PROVIDE SUFFICIENT mechanical (General) and/or local EXHAUST
VENTILATION to maintain exposure below TLV(s).
EYE PROTECTION: SAFETY GLASSES, chemical GOGGLES and/or FACE SHIELDS ARE
RECOMMENDED to safeguard against potential eye contact, irritation and POSSIBLE
CORNEAL DAMAGE.
OTHER PROTECTIVE
EQUIPMENT: To prevent repeated or prolonged skin contact the user should wear
impervious clothing and boots.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION (PERSONAL SAFETY).
WARNING: PROPOSITION 65: (California's Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement
Act of 1986):
Paints and Coatings, Solvents, Surface Preparation Materials, Patching,
Caulking, Spackling and related products may contain detectable traces of
various chemicals as unintended contaminants. Some of these chemicals are known
to the state of California to cause cancer and/or birth defects or other
reproductive harm. In absence of extensive scientific testing and continuous
monitoring to demonstrate no significant risk or no observable effect resulting
from exposure to trace contaminants during normal use of the products mentioned
above. This warning is provided pursuant to California Health Code Section
25249.6.
* AN ASTERISK POSITIONED IN FRONT OF AN INGREDIENT SIGNIFIES A CHEMICAL KNOWN TO

Section IX - SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
WARNING: NUISANCE DUST
??When this symbol follows an ingredient it signifies that the ingredient
contains CRYSTALLINE SILICA which because it is encapsulated within the
embodiment of the product is not in the form of airborne particles of respirable
size. However, should the non-volatile portion of this product be removed by dry
or mechanical sanding methods, it is important to be aware that the
INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR CANCER RESEARCH has classified CRYSTALLINE SILICA
(CS) as probably being carcinogenic for humans (Class 2A). This classification
is based on findings of laboratory animal studies that are considered
sufficient, and data from epidemiological studies considered limited for
carcinogenicity. CS is also a known cause for silicosis, a non-cancerous lung
disease. CS has not been classified as a carcinogen by NTP or OSHA. Materials
that contain quartz or crystalline silica are: clay, cement, mica and perlite.
When the (PRODUCT) is applied under normal circumstances, no dust would be
encountered. Notwithstanding, the AMERICAN CONFERENCE OF GOVERNMENTAL AND
INDUSTRIAL HYGIENISTS (ACGIH) would classify particulate so generated... to be
considered a "NUISANCE DUST" and recommends that a dust respirator (such as Mine
Safety Appliance No. 66 CM073053 type filter) be worn if 10 mg/cubic meter in
air is exceeded.
