Engineering Measures
Open doors & windows. Provide ventilation capable of maintaining emissions at the point of use below
recommended exposure limits. If used in enclosed area, use exhaust fans. Exhaust fans should be explosion-
proof or set up in a way that flammable concentrations of solvent vapors are not exposed to electrical fixtures or
hot surfaces.
Personal Protective Equipment: Respiratory
For operations where the exposure limit may be exceeded, a NIOSH approved organic vapor respirator or
supplied air respirator is recommended. Equipment selection depends on contaminant type and concentration,
select in accordance with 29 CFR 1910.134 and good industrial hygiene practice. For firefighting, use self-
contained breathing apparatus.
Personal Protective Equipment: Hands
Rubber gloves are suitable for normal use of the product. For long exposures chemical resistant gloves may be
required such as 4H(tm) or Silver Shield(tm) to avoid prolonged skin contact.
Personal Protective Equipment: Eyes
Safety glasses with side shields or safety goggles.
Personal Protective Equipment: Skin and Body
No additional protective equipment needed.
