SAFETY DATA SHEET
Section 4 – FIRST AID MEASURES
If medical advice is needed, have product container or label at hand.
If exposed or if you feel unwell: Call a POISON CENTRE 0800 764 766 or doctor.
Eye contact: IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to
do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice.
Skin contact: IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water. If skin irritation or rash occurs: Get medical advice.
Inhalation: IF INHALED: If breathing is difficult, remove to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for
breathing. If experiencing respiratory symptoms: Call a POISON CENTRE or doctor.
Ingestion: IF SWALLOWED: Immediately call a POISON CENTRE or doctor. Do NOT induce vomiting. Where there is
risk of vomiting, lean person forward or place on left side to avoid aspiration of product into lungs.
Obtain immediate medical attention.
Notes to physician: Treat symptomatically and supportively. No specific antidote.
Section 5 – FIRE-FIGHTING MEASURES
General fire hazards: Pressurised container, extremely flammable aerosol.
Specific hazards: Containers can build up pressure if exposed to heat and/or fire and may explode. Vapours may form an
explosive mixture with air. Vapours can travel to a source of ignition and flash back. Contents may float
and be re-ignited on surface water.
Further advice: On burning may emit toxic fumes including those of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Fire fighters to
wear self-contained breathing apparatus if risk of exposure to products of combustion.
Extinguishing media: For small fires, use dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or alcohol-resistant foam.
For large fires, use water spray, fog, or foam. Use water spray to cool fire-exposed containers. Water may
be ineffective. Do not discharge extinguishing waters into the aquatic environment. Do NOT use straight
streams of water.
Protective equipment: Firefighters must use standard protective equipment including flame retardant coat, helmet with face
shield, gloves, rubber boots, and in enclosed spaces, SCBA.
Fire fighting instructions: In the event of fire, cool containers with water spray to prevent vapour pressure build up. Move
containers from fire area if you can do so without risk. Runoff can cause environmental damage.
Hazchem Code: 2YE
Section 6 – ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Minor spills: Clean up all spills immediately. Spills are extremely slippery. Remove all sources of ignition. If safe to do,
damaged cans should be placed in a container outdoors, away from all ignition sources, until pressure has
dissipated. Undamaged cans should be gathered and stowed safely. Provide ventilation.
Major spills: Evacuate the spill area. Call the Fire Brigade. Remove all sources of ignition. Spills are extremely slippery.
If safe to do so, prevent spillage from entering drains or water courses. If material enters drains, advise
emergency services. Use absorbent (soil, sand or other inert material). Collect and seal in properly
labeled containers for disposal.
Section 7 – HANDLING AND STORAGE
Handling Precautions: Read product label before use. Keep out of reach of children.
This product is highly flammable. Keep away from heat and open flames/hot surfaces. No smoking. Do
not spray on an open flame or other ignition source. Pressurised container: Do not pierce or burn, even
after use.
Use in a well-ventilated area. Avoid breathing spray. Wash hands with soap and water after handling.
Storage: Protect from sunlight. Do not expose to temperatures exceeding 50 °C. Store in a well ventilated, cool,
dry place. Keep away from heat, sparks, and flame. Store locked up.
