OSHA: NO
Effects of Exposure: ACUTE: INHALATION: EXCESSIVE EXPOSURE TO VAPORS OR SPRAY
  MISTS CAN RESULT IN HEADACHE, DIZZINESS, INCOORDINATION, NAUSEA AND LOSS OF
  CONSCIOUSNESS. EYE: THIS MATERIAL MAY BE AN EYE IRRITANT. SKIN: THI S
  MATERIAL MAY CAUSE DEFATTING AND IRRITATION OF SKIN. PROLONGED OR REPEATED
  CONTACT MAY CAUSE DERMATITIES. INGESTION: MAY PRODUCE SIGNS OF INTOXICATION
  CHARACTERIZED BY INCOORDINATION, DIZZINESS, HEA DACHE, NAUSEA, MENTAL
  CONFUSION, SLURRED SPEECH AND STUPOR, DEPENDING ON THE QUANITITY OF MATERIAL
  INGESTED. CHRONIC: REPORTS HAVE ASSOCIATED REPEATED AND PROLONGED
  OCCUPATIONAL OVEREXPOSURE TO SOLVEN TS WITH (EFTS OF OVEREXP)
Signs And Symptions Of Overexposure: HLTH HAZ: PERMANENT BRAIN AND CENTRAL
  NERVOUS SYSTEM DAMAGE. INTENTIONAL MISUSE BY DELIBERATELY CONCENTRATING AND
  INHALING THE CONTENTS MAY BE HARMFUL OR FATAL.
Medical Cond Aggravated By Exposure: KIDNEY DISEASES, RESPIRATORY ILLNESSES,
  SKIN ALLERGIES.
  MINUTES. TAKE TO A PHYSICIAN FOR MEDICAL ATTENTION. SKIN: WASH AFFECTED AREAS
  WITH SOAP AND WATER. REMOVE CONTAMINATED CLOTHING. CON SULT A PHYSICIAN IF
  IRRITATION PERSISTS. INGESTION: DRINK 1-2 GLASSES OF WATER TO DILUTE. DO NOT
  INDUCE VOMITING. CONSULT PHYSICIAN OR POISON CONTROL CENTER IMMEDIATELY.
  TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY. INHALAT ION: REMOVE TO FRESH AIR, RESTORE BREATHING.
  TREAT SYMPTOMATICALLY. CONSULT PHYSICIAN.

Handling and Disposal
*
Spill Release Procedures: REMOVE ANY SOURCES OF IGNITION. PROVIDE ADEQUATE
  VENTILATION AND/OR NIOSH APPROVED SELF-CONTAINED BREATHING APPARATUS. DIKE
  SPILL, APPLY ABSORBENT MATERIAL.
Waste Disposal Methods: USING NON-SPARKING TOOLS, SCRAPE UP AND STORE IN CLOSED
  METAL CONTAINER. AVOID BREATHING VAPORS. DISPOSE OF IN APPROVED SITES
  ACCORDING TO LOCAL, STATE AND FEDERAL REGULATIONS.
Handling And Storage Precautions: AVOID BREATHING SANDING DUST. AVOID STORAGE
  OR OPEN FLAMES.
Other Precautions: AVOID PROLONGED BREATHING OF VAPORS OR CONTACT WITH SKIN.
  PREVENT PROLONGED OR REPEATED BREATHING OF VAPORS OR SPRAY MIST. TO AVOID
  SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION DURING TEMPORARY STORAGE, SOAK SOILED RAGS AN D WASTE
  IMMEDIATELY AFTER USE, IN WATER FILLED, CLOSED METAL CONTAINER.
