Information
Warning!
RESPIRATORY TRACT,EYE, AND SKIN IRRITATION. MAY AFFECT THE
BRAIN OR NERVOUS SYSTEM CAUSING DIZZINESS, HEADACHE OR
NAUSEA. MAY CAUSE ALLERGIC SKIN REACTION. FOR INDUSTRIAL
OR COMMERCIAL USE ONLY. REFER TO MATERIAL SAFETY DATA
SHEET (MSDS) FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.
† Pot life is affected by air temperature, amount of material activated and quantity of thinner used. Avoid activating large quantities at
temperatures above 80°F (27°C). At temperatures above 90°F (32°C), the pot life of unthinned material in 5 gallon pails may be very short
(less than one hour).
