surfaces, vapors may decompose to harmful or fatal corrosive gases such as hydrogen chloride
and possibly phosgene.
Special protective equipment Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with
and precautions for firefighters face shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
Fire-fighting In case of fire: Stop leak if safe to do so. Move containers from fire area if you can do so without

6. Accidental release measures
Personal precautions, Keep unnecessary personnel away. Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak. Keep out of
protective equipment and low areas. Many gases are heavier than air and will spread along ground and collect in low or
emergency procedures confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Wear appropriate protective equipment and clothing
during clean-up. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Emergency personnel need self-contained
breathing equipment. Do not touch damaged containers or spilled material unless wearing
appropriate protective clothing. Ventilate closed spaces before entering them. Local authorities
should be advised if significant spillages cannot be contained.
Methods and materials for Eliminate all ignition sources (no smoking, flares, sparks, or flames in immediate area). Keep
containment and cleaning up combustibles (wood, paper, oil, etc.) away from spilled material. Collect spillage. This material is
classified as a water pollutant under the Clean Water Act and should be prevented from
contaminating soil or from entering sewage and drainage systems which lead to waterways. Stop
the flow of material, if this is without risk. Wipe up with absorbent material (e.g. cloth, fleece).
Clean surface thoroughly to remove residual contamination. Put material in suitable, covered,
labeled containers. For waste disposal, see section 13 of the SDS.
Environmental precautions Avoid release to the environment. Inform appropriate managerial or supervisory personnel of all
environmental releases. Prevent further leakage or spillage if safe to do so. Do not contaminate
water. Avoid discharge into drains, water courses or onto the ground.

7. Handling and storage

Precautions for safe handling Obtain special instructions before use. Do not handle until all safety precautions have been read
and understood. Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use. Use with adequate
ventilation. Open doors and windows or use other means to ensure a fresh air supply during use
and while product is drying. If you experience any symptoms listed on this label, increase
ventilation or leave the area. Do not use if spray button is missing or defective. Do not spray on a
naked flame or any other incandescent material. Do not smoke while using or until sprayed surface
is thoroughly dry. Do not cut, weld, solder, drill, grind, or expose containers to heat, flame, sparks,
or other sources of ignition. Use caution around energized equipment. The metal container will
conduct electricity if it contacts a live source. This may result in injury to the user from electrical
shock and/or flash fire. Avoid breathing mist or vapor. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, and clothing.
Avoid prolonged exposure. Should be handled in closed systems, if possible. Use only in
well-ventilated areas. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment. Avoid release to the
environment. Do not empty into drains. Observe good industrial hygiene practices. For product
usage instructions, see the product label.
Conditions for safe storage, Level 1 Aerosol.
including any incompatibilities
Contents under pressure. Do not handle or store near an open flame, heat or other sources of
ignition. Do not puncture or incinerate container. Do not expose to heat or store at temperatures

Exposure to high temperature may cause can to burst. Store away from incompatible materials
(see Section 10 of the SDS).

Other Wear appropriate chemical resistant clothing.
Respiratory protection If engineering controls are not feasible or if exposure exceeds the applicable exposure limits, use a
NIOSH-approved cartridge respirator with an organic vapor cartridge. Use a self-contained
breathing apparatus in confined spaces and for emergencies. Air monitoring is needed to
determine actual employee exposure levels.
Thermal hazards Wear appropriate thermal protective clothing, when necessary.

General hygiene Observe any medical surveillance requirements. When using do not smoke. Always observe good
considerations personal hygiene measures, such as washing after handling the material and before eating,
drinking, and/or smoking. Routinely wash work clothing and protective equipment to remove
