NFPA RATING

CONTACT WITH SKIN or EYES: This material can cause eye irritation with tearing, redness, or a stinging or burning feeling. Further, it can cause swelling of the eyes with blurred vision. Effects may become more serious with repeated or prolonged contact. May cause mild skin irritation with redness and/or an itching or burning feeling. Effects may become more serious with repeated or prolonged contact. It is likely that some components of this material are able to pass into the body through the skin and may cause similar effects as from breathing or swallowing it. INGESTION: Swallowing this material may be harmful. Swallowing this material may cause stomach or intestinal upset with pain, nausea, and/or diarrhea. This material can get into the lungs during swallowing or vomiting. Small amounts in the lungs can cause lung damage, possibly leading to chronic lung dysfunction or death. Swallowing this material may cause effects similar to those described in the inhalation section (see "inhalation" above). HEALTH EFFECTS OR RISKS FROM EXPOSURE: An Explanation in Lay Terms.

Overexposure to this product may cause the following: ACUTE: The dye may stain hair, skin, and other contaminated tissue. Inhalation of vapors can cause dizziness, headaches and loss of consciousness. Ingestion can cause nausea and vomiting. CHRONIC: Prolonged or repeated skin overexposures may cause dermatitis (dry red skin). Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with irreversible brain and nervous system damage (sometimes referred to as "Solvent or Painter's Syndrome"). TARGET ORGANS: ACUTE: Eyes, lungs. CHRONIC: Blood, liver, kidneys, lungs.

EYES: Flush eyes with water for at least 15 minutes. Hold eyelids apart to ensure complete irrigation. Contact a physician. SKIN: Rinse exposed area with water. The dye can be removed with hand cream or hand cleaner. Contact a

physician if irritation develops. INGESTION: Do not induce vomiting. If spontaneous vomiting is about to occur, place victims head below knees. If

victim is drowsy or unconscious, place on the left side with head down. Never give anything by mouth to a person who is not fully conscious. Do not leave victim unattended. Seek medical attention immediately.

INHALATION: Remove the individual to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing difficult, give oxygen. Call a physician.

Special fire fighting Procedures: Protective clothing and self-contained breathing apparatus should be worn when fighting fires involving chemicals. Contain water runoff when fighting fire as it may be contaminated with product. In case of fire water can only be used to cool containers to prevent them from rupturing. Use sand, CO2, or foam to extinguish flames.

Fire and Explosion Hazards: Flammable liquid! This material releases vapors at or below ambient temperatures. When mixed with air in certain proportions and exposed to an ignition source, its vapor can cause a flash fire. Use only with adequate ventilation. Vapors are heavier than air and may travel long distances along the ground to an ignition source and flash back. A vapor and air mixture can create an explosion hazard in confined spaces such as sewers. If container is not properly cooled, it can rupture in the heat of a fire.

Stop, contain and clean up the spill immediately. Contain liquids using absorbents. Sweep up powders carefully, minimizing dusting. Dye residue on concrete and metal surfaces may be wiped and cleaned with light mineral oil. Shovel all spill materials into disposal drums and follow all Federal, State and Local disposal regulations.

STORAGE AND HANDLING PRACTICES: Employees must be trained to properly use this product. Keep away from heat, sparks, and other sources of ignition. Store outdoors. If stored in enclosed space adequate ventilation must be provided to minimize vapor buildup. Use non-sparking tools. Open containers slowly on a stable surface. When pouring or dispensing to or from drums or other containers, insure that all containers are properly grounded/bonded to prevent static charge build up. Store containers in a cool, dry location, away from sources of intense heat. Store away from incompatible materials (see Section 10, Stability and Reactivity). Storage areas should be made of fire resistant materials. Post warning and NO SMOKING signs in storage and use areas, as appropriate. Have appropriate extinguishing equipment in the storage area (i.e., sprinkler system, portable fire extinguishers). Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Inspect all incoming containers before storage to ensure containers are properly labeled and not damaged. Empty containers may contain residual dye that is combustible; therefore, empty packages should be handled with care.

VENTILATION AND ENGINEERING CONTROLS: Use with adequate ventilation to ensure exposure levels are maintained below the limits provided below. Exhaust directly to the outside, taking necessary precautions for environmental protection. If necessary, refer to Australian National Code of Practice for the Control of Workplace Hazardous Substances [NOHSC: 2007 (1994)] for further information.
