Page 2 of 5 contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention immediately. Thoroughly wash or discard clothing and shoes before reuse. INGESTION: If swallowed, rinse mouth well with water if person is conscious. Do not induce vomiting unless directed to do so by medical personnel. Get medical attention immediately. INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration or give oxygen by trained personnel. If signs or symptoms persist, seek medical attention. NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: This product contains methanol which can cause intoxication and CNS depression. Methanol is metabolized to formic acid and formaldehyde. These metabolites can cause metabolic acidosis, visual disturbances and blindness. Since metabolism is required for these toxic symptoms, their onset may be delayed from 6 to 30 hours following ingestion. Ethanol competes for the same metabolic pathway and has been used to prevent methanol metabolism. Ethanol administration is indicated in symptomatic patients or at blood methanol concentrations above 20 ug/dl. Methanol is effectively removed by hemodialysis. 5. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES FLASHPOINT AND METHOD: 11°C (51.8°F) Closed Cup Notes: Lowest known value. AUTOIGNITION TEMPERATURE: > 200°C (392°F) FLAMMABLE CLASS: Flammable. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: Use dry chemical powder, alcohol foam, or carbon dioxide. HAZARDOUS COMBUSTION PRODUCTS: Carbon oxides. May emit other toxic fumes under fire conditions. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: Vapor may travel considerable distance to source of ignition and flash back. EXPLOSION HAZARDS: High temperatures or fire may cause container to explode. Use water spray to cool fire exposed containers. FIRE FIGHTING PROCEDURES: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, (MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent) and full protective gear. 6. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES SMALL SPILL: Eliminate all ignition sources. Absorb with an inert material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. LARGE SPILL: Extinguish all sources of ignition. Stop spill or leak at source. Dike if necessary. Absorb with an inert material and place in an appropriate waste disposal container. Use non-sparking tools. RELEASE NOTES: Keep spilled material from entering storm drains, sewers, or other environmental mediums. COMMENTS: Disposal of clean-up materials may be governmentally regulated. Observe all applicable local, state, and federal waste management regulations. 7. HANDLING AND STORAGE HANDLING: Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Wear appropriate personal protection. Wash thoroughly after handling. Empty containers may retain product residue and flammable vapors. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Do not cut, puncture, or weld on or near the empty container. STORAGE: Keep container closed when not in use. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Store and use away from heat, sparks, open flames, or other ignition sources. 8.
