Skin Contact
In case of contact, immediately flush skin with plenty of
water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash
clothing before reuse. Thoroughly clean shoes before
reuse. Get medical attention immediately.

Hazardous
Inhalation
Evacuate the victim to a safe area as soon as possible.
Loosen tight clothing such as a collar, tie, belt or
waistband.
WARNING: It may be hazardous to the person
providing aid to give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation when the
inhaled material is toxic, infectious or corrosive. Seek
immediate medical attention.
Ingestion
DO NOT induce vomiting. Drink promptly a large quantity of
milk, egg whites, gelatin solution, or if these are not
available, drink large quantities of water. Call a
physician or poison control center immediately. Never give
anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Hazardous
Ingestion
NOTES TO PHYSICIAN: Mucosal damage may contraindicate the
use of gastric lavage. Measures against circulatory shock,
respiratory depression and convulsions may be required.

(fire). "Empty" containers retain product residue (liquid
and/or vapour) and can be dangerous. DO NOT PRESSURIZE,
CUT, WELD, BRAZE, SOLDER, DRILL, GRIND, OR EXPOSE SUCH
CONTAINERS TO HEAT, FLAME, SPARKS, STATIC ELECTRICITY OR
OTHER SOURCES OF IGNITION; THEY MAY EXPLODE AND CAUSE
INJURY OR DEATH. Empty drums should be completely drained,
properly bunged and promptly returned to a drum
reconditioner, or disposed of properly.
**Section VI. Accidental Release Measures**
Small Spill
Stop leak if no risk involved. Absorb with an inert
material and place in an appropriate waste disposal
container.
Large Spill
Flammable liquid.
Keep away from heat. Keep away from sources of ignition.
Stop leak if without risk. Absorb with DRY earth, sand or
other non-combustible material. Do not touch spilled
material. Prevent entry into sewers, basements or confined
areas; dike if needed. Call for assistance on disposal.
Be careful that the product is not present at a
concentration level above TLV. Check TLV on the MSDS and
with local authorities.
**Section VII. Handling and Storage**
Precautions
Keep locked up. Keep container dry. Keep away from heat.
Keep away from sources of ignition. Ground all equipment
containing material. DO NOT ingest. Do not breathe
gas/fumes/ vapor/spray. In case of insufficient
ventilation, wear suitable respiratory equipment. If
ingested, seek medical advice immediately and show the
container or the label. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
After handling, always wash hands thoroughly with soap and
water.
Storage
Store in a segregated and approved area. Keep container
in a cool, well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly
closed and sealed until ready for use. Avoid all possible
sources of ignition (spark or flame).
OTHER: Not for use or storage in or around the home.
Showering and clothing change recommended at the end of
each shift. Wash work clothes separately from other
household clothing. Clean contaminated equipment thoroughly
prior to welding or cutting. Do not use until
manufacturer's precautions have been read and understood.
**Section VIII. Exposure Controls/Personal Protection**
Engineering
Controls
Provide exhaust ventilation or other engineering controls
to keep the airborne concentrations of vapors below their
respective threshold limit value. Ensure that eyewash
stations and safety showers are proximal to the
work-station location.
Personal
Protection
Use a respirator with organic vapour cartridge if the area
is not ventilated. Be sure to use a MSHA/NIOSH approved
respirator or equivalent. Safety glasses. As
necessary for
work area conditions: use side shields, goggles or
faceshield. As required, chemical-resistant flexible- type
gloves. (Nitrile, Neoprene). Wear industrial-type work
clothing and safety footwear. Depending on working
conditions, i.e. contact potential, wear impervious
protective garments such as head/neck cover, gloves,
aprons, jackets, pants, coveralls, boots, etc.
Personal
Protection in
Case of a Large
Spill
Use a respirator with organic vapour cartridge if the area
is not ventilated. Be sure to use a MSHA/NIOSH approved
respirator or equivalent. Safety glasses. As necessary for
work area conditions: use side shields, goggles or
faceshield. As required, chemical-resistant flexible- type
gloves. (Nitrile, Neoprene). Wear industrial-type work

Other Special
Considerations
NOTE: The petroleum distillate (CAS# 64742-95-6) may
contain approximately 7% xylene, 3% cumene and 40%
trimethylbenzene. Trimethylbenzene (25551-13-7 may contain
20% 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene (95-63-6)
Health and Welfare Canada requires that the statement
"Potential Skin Sensitizer" appear on NP-1 Concentrate
labels. This statement is not based on any data from NP-1
use or testing. Health and Welfare Canada has requested
this statement based soley on small animal data reported by
other sapstain chemical producers. NP-1 has been shown to
NOT be a skin sensitizer in human clinical testing as well
as 8 years of continual use. It is believed that the term
"Potential Skin Sensitizer" is intended to mean that there
is a small chance that some individual in the population
may have an allergic skin reaction.
