III. HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
Routes of Entry: Inhalation., Ingestion., Skin contact., Eye contact.
Medical Conditions Aggravated: Eye disease. Liver disease. Skin disease including eczema and sensitization.
Respiratory disease including asthma and bronchitis.
Immediate (Acute) Health Effects
Inhalation: Irritation may be delayed for several hours. Can cause moderate respiratory irritation,
dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and headache.
Skin Contact: Substance causes moderate skin irritation. Can cause minor skin irritation, defatting,
and dermatitis.
Eye Contact: Mildly irritating but will not injure eye tissue. Can cause moderate irritation, tearing
and reddening, but not likely to permanently injure eye tissue. Contact with the eyes

Toxicity: system hazard based on high dose tests with laboratory animals.
Mutagenicity: No data available to indicate product or any components present at greater than 0.1%
is mutagenic or genotoxic.
Inhalation: Upon prolonged and/or repeated exposure, can cause moderate respiratory irritation,
dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea and headache.
Skin Contact: Prolonged or repeated contact may cause irritation. Upon prolonged or repeated
contact, can cause minor skin irritation, defatting, and dermatitis.
Eye Contact: Upon prolonged or repeated contact, can cause moderate to severe eye injury. Eye
contact may result in tearing and reddening, but not likely to permanently injure eye
tissue. Temporary vision impairment (cloudy or blurred vision) is possible.
Skin Absorption: Upon prolonged or repeated exposure, no hazard in normal industrial use.
Target Organ Chronic Toxicity: Respiratory Tract. Eyes. Blood. Liver. Skin. Nervous System.
Supplemental Health Hazard No additional health information available.
Information:
IV. FIRST AID
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Get medical attention immediately. Have a trained individual
administer himidified oxygen. If not breathing, give artificial respiration.
Eyes: Use an eye wash to remove a chemical from your eye regardless of the level of
hazard. Flush the affected eye for at least twenty minutes. Tilt the head to prevent
chemical from transferring to the uncontaminated eye. Seek medical advice after
flushing.
Skin Contact: Wash with soap and water under a drench shower. Remove contaminated clothing,
launder immediately, and discard contaminated leather goods. Get medical attention
immediately.

Ingestion: Do not induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately. Drink two glasses
of water or milk to dilute. Provide medical care provider with this MSDS.
Notes to MD: No additional first aid information available.
V. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability Summary:
Flash Point: -4 (CALC.) oF
Upper Flammable/Explosive 12.8 @ 77º F
Limit, % in air:
Lower Flammable/Explosive 2.5 @ 77º F
Limit, % in air:
Fire Hazards: Flammable Liquid. Can release vapors that form explosive mixtures at temperatures at
or above the flash point. Vapors may be ignited by heat, sparks, flames or other
sources of ignition at or above the low flash point giving rise to a Class B fire. Vapors
are heavier than air and may travel to a source of ignition and flash back.
Extinguishing Media: Use alcohol resistant spray, Carbon Dioxide, water spray or dry chemical to
extinguish a fire involving this chemical. Flammable component(s) of this material
may be lighter than water and burn while floating on the surface. Use methods
suitable to fight surrounding fire. Use alcohol resistant foam, carbon dioxide, or dry
chemical extinguishing agents. Water spray or fog may also be effective for
extinguishing if swept across the base of the fire. Water can also be used to absorb
heat and keep exposed material from being damaged by fire.
Fire Fighting Instructions: Flammable component(s) of this material may be lighter than water and burn while
floating on the surface.Do not enter fire area without proper protection including self-
contained toxic breathing apparatus and full protective equipment. Fight fire from a
safe distance and a protected location due to the potential of hazardous vapors and
decomposition products. Flammable component(s) of this material may be lighter than
water and burn while floating on the surface. Use water spray/fog for cooling.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide
VI. ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Health Consideration for Spill
Response:
Spill Mitigation Procedures
General Methods:
VII. HANDLING AND STORAGE
Exposure to the spilled material may be irritating or harmful. Follow personal
protective equipment recommendations found in Section VIII of this MSDS.
Additional precautions may be necessary based on special circumstances created by
the spill including; the material spilled, the quantity of the spill, the area in which the
spill occurred. Also consider the expertise of employees in the area responding to the
spill.
Prevent the spread of any spill to minimize harm to human health and the
environment if safe to do so. Wear complete and proper personal protective
equipment following the recommendation of Section VIII at a minimum. Dike with
suitable absorbent material like granulated clay. Gather and store in a sealed container
pending a waste disposal evaluation.
M520-0143 HC RAW UMBER ULTRA PENETRATING STAIN Page 3 of 6
Handling: Use spark-proof tools and explosion-proof equipment. Wash thoroughly after
handling. Avoid contact with material. Keep in air-tight containers- material is
hygroscopic. "Empty" containers retain product residue (liquid and/or vapor) and can
be dangerous. Ground and bond containers when transferring material. Harmful or
irritating material. Avoid contact and avoid breathing the material. Use only in a well
ventilated area.
Storage: Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Keep away from sources of ignition. Do not
store near combustible materials. Store in a cool dry ventilated location. Isolate from
incompatible materials and conditions. Keep container(s) closed.
VIII. ENGINEERING CONTROLS AND PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
Engineering Controls: Ventilation should effectively remove and prevent buildup of any vapor/mist/fume
generated from the handling of this product. Facilities storing or using this material
should be equipped with an eyewash and safety shower.
Protective Equipment
Respiratory Tract: Respirators should be selected by and used under the direction of a trained health and
safety professional following requirements found in OSHA's respirator standard (29
CFR 1910.134) and ANSI's standard for respiratory protection (Z88.2-1992). A
written respiratory protection program, including provisions for medical certification,
training, fit testing, exposure assessments, maintenance, inspection, cleaning, and
convenient, sanitary storage should be implemented.
Eyes: Wear chemically resistant safety glasses with side shields when handling this product.
Wear additional eye protection such as chemical splash goggles and/or face shield
when the possibility exists for eye contact with splashing or spraying liquid, or
airborne material. Do not wear contact lenses. Have an eye wash station available.
Skin: Avoid skin contact by wearing chemically resistant gloves, an apron and other
protective equipment depending upon conditions of use. Inspect gloves for chemical
break-through and replace at regular intervals. Clean protective equipment regularly.
Wash hands and other exposed areas with mild soap and water before eating,
drinking, and when leaving work.
