1.2. Relevant identified uses of the substance or mixture and uses advised against
Version : 17
Date of previous issue : 18-1-2016
4.2. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed
There are no data available on the mixture itself. The mixture has been assessed following the conventional method
of the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and is classified for toxicological properties accordingly. See Sections 2
and 3 for details.
Exposure to component solvent vapour concentrations in excess of the stated occupational exposure limit may result
in adverse health effects such as mucous membrane and respiratory system irritation and adverse effects on the
kidneys, liver and central nervous system. Symptoms and signs include headache, dizziness, fatigue, muscular
weakness, drowsiness and, in extreme cases, loss of consciousness.
Solvents may cause some of the above effects by absorption through the skin. Repeated or prolonged contact with
the mixture may cause removal of natural fat from the skin, resulting in non-allergic contact dermatitis and absorption
through the skin.
If splashed in the eyes, the liquid may cause irritation and reversible damage.
Ingestion may cause nausea, diarrhea and vomiting.
This takes into account, where known, delayed and immediate effects and also chronic effects of components from
short-term and long-term exposure by oral, inhalation and dermal routes of exposure and eye contact.
4.3. Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed
Notes to physician : Treat symptomatically. Contact poison treatment specialist immediately if large
quantities have been ingested or inhaled.
6.2. Environmental : Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses. If the product contaminates lakes,
precautions rivers, or sewers, inform the appropriate authorities in accordance with local
regulations.
6.3. Methods and material : Contain and collect spillage with non-combustible, absorbent material e.g. sand,
for containment and earth, vermiculite or diatomaceous earth and place in container for disposal
cleaning up according to local regulations (see Section 13). Preferably clean with a detergent.
Avoid using solvents.
NOTICE: The selection of a specific glove for a particular application and duration
of use in a workplace should also take into account all relevant workplace factors
such as, but not limited to: Other chemicals which may be handled, physical
requirements (cut/puncture protection, dexterity, thermal protection), potential
body reactions to glove materials, as well as the instructions/specifications
provided by the glove supplier.
The user must check that the final choice of type of glove selected for handling
this product is the most appropriate and takes into account the particular
conditions of use, as included in the user's risk assessment.
Body protection : Personnel should wear antistatic clothing made of natural fibres or of high-
temperature-resistant synthetic fibres.
Other skin protection : Appropriate footwear and any additional skin protection measures should be
selected based on the task being performed and the risks involved and should be
approved by a specialist before handling this product.
Respiratory protection : If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit, they must use
appropriate, certified respirators.
When surfaces are to be prepared for painting, account should be taken of the
age of the property and the possibility that lead-pigmented paint might be present.
There is a possibility that ingestion or inhalation of scrapings or dust arising from
the preparation work could cause health effects. As a working rule you should
assume that this will be the case if the age of the property is pre 1960.
Where possible wet sanding or chemical stripping methods should be used with
surfaces of this type to avoid the creation of dust. When dry sanding cannot be
avoided, and effective local exhaust ventilation is not available, it is recommended
Extra precautions will also need to be taken when burning off old lead-based
paints because fumes containing lead will be produced. It is recommended that a
respirator, approved for use with particulate fumes of lead is selected on the basis
of the COSHH assessment, taking into account the Workplace Exposure Limit for
lead in air. Similar precautions to those given above about sanding should be
taken with reference to protective clothing, disposal of scrapings and dusts, and
exclusion of other personnel and especially children from the building during
actual work and the subsequent clean up operations.
Avoid the inhalation of dust. Wear suitable face mask if dry sanding. Special
precautions should be taken during surface preparation of pre-1960s paint
surfaces over wood and metal as they may contain harmful lead.
Environmental exposure : Do not allow to enter drains or watercourses.

10.2. Chemical stability : Stable under recommended storage and handling conditions (see Section 7).
10.3. Possibility of : Under normal conditions of storage and use, hazardous reactions will not occur.
hazardous reactions
10.4. Conditions to avoid : When exposed to high temperatures may produce hazardous decomposition
products.
10.5. Incompatible materials : Keep away from the following materials to prevent strong exothermic reactions:
oxidising agents, strong alkalis, strong acids.
10.6. Hazardous : Under normal conditions of storage and use, hazardous decomposition products
decomposition products should not be produced.
