SECTION VIII- SAFE HANDLING AND PROTECTION INFORMATION

 

Ventilation:          Use local exhaust ventilation to control mists or vapors generated when using this product. Ventilation must be adequate to keep exposure below regulated limits as noted in section II.

Respiratory Protection:     A qualified person should select appropriate respiratory protection if exposure is expected to be excessive.

Protective Gloves: Rubber Gloves, chemically resistant.

Eye Protection: Wear safety glasses, goggles or face shield.

Other Protective Equipment: Wear suitable protective clothing. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use.  A source of clean water shall be available for washing eyes and skin.

Hygienic Practices: Wash hands before eating, smoking or using washrooms. Smoke only in designated areas.
