redness and pain. This product contains an anionic dye. Similar
  dyes have not caused injury to the cornea or conjunctiva in documented
  exposure cases with human
  or rabbit eyes.
  Aggravation of Pre-existing Conditions: No
information found.
  4. First Aid Measures
  Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Get
medical attention for any breathing difficulty.
  Ingestion: If swallowed, give several
glasses of water to drink to dilute. If large amounts were
  swallowed or symptoms occur, get medical advice. Never give anything by mouth
  to an unconscious
  person.
  Skin Contact: Immediately flush skin
with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove
  contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean
  shoes before reuse.
  Get medical attention if irritation develops.
  Eye Contact: Immediately flush eyes
with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes, lifting upper and
  lower eyelids occasionally. Get medical attention if irritation persists.
  5. Fire Fighting Measures
  Fire: Not expected to be a fire
hazard.
  Explosion: No information found.
  Fire Extinguishing Media: Dry
chemical, foam, water or carbon dioxide.
  Special Information: In the event of a
fire, wear full protective clothing and NIOSH-approved selfcontained
  breathing apparatus with full facepiece operated in the pressure demand or
  other positive
  pressure mode.
  6. Accidental Release Measures
  Ventilate area of leak or spill. Wear appropriate personal protective
  equipment as specified in Section
  8. Spills: Sweep up and containerize for reclamation or disposal. Vacuuming or
  wet sweeping may be
  used to avoid dust dispersal.
  7. Handling and Storage
  Keep in a tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry, ventilated area.
  Protect against physical
  damage. Isolate from incompatible substances. Containers of this material may
  be hazardous when
  empty since they retain product residues (dust, solids); observe all warnings
  and precautions listed for
  the product.
  8. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection
  Airborne Exposure Limits: None
established.
  Personal Respirators (NIOSH Approved): For
conditions of use where exposure to dust or mist is
  apparent and engineering controls are not feasible, a particulate respirator
  (NIOSH type N95 or better
  filters) may be worn. If oil particles (e.g. lubricants, cutting fluids,
  glycerine, etc.) are present, use a
  NIOSH type R or P filter. For emergencies or instances where the exposure
  levels are not known, use
  a full-face positive-pressure, air-supplied respirator. WARNING: Air-purifying
  respirators do not
  protect workers in oxygen-deficient atmospheres.
  Skin Protection: Wear protective
gloves and clean body-covering clothing.
  Eye Protection: Use chemical safety
goggles. Maintain eye wash fountain and quick-drench
  facilities in work area.
