May cause central nervous system effects, including dizziness, headache or nausea. Causes eye, skin and respiratory tract irritation. Overexposure may cause liver, kidney damage. Contains crystalline silica which can cause lung cancer and other lung damage if inhaled. When tinted, contains ethylene glycol which can cause severe kidney damage when ingested and has been shown to cause birth defects in laboratory animals. Use only with adequate ventilation. Keep out of the reach of children. This product contains solvents. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal. This product contains a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not smoke. Vapors may ignite.

Effects of overexposure:
INHALATION: Irritation of respiratory tract. Prolonged inhalation may lead to loss of appetite, mucous membrane irritation, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness and/or lightheadedness, headache, uncoordination, nausea, vomiting, chest pain, coughing, central nervous system depression, intoxication, anesthetic effect or narcosis, difficulty of breathing, allergic response, asthmatic reaction, severe lung irritation or damage, liver damage, kidney damage, pulmonary edema, convulsions, pneumoconiosis, loss of consciousness, asphyxiation. Possible sensitization to respiratory tract.
SKIN CONTACT: Irritation of skin. Prolonged or repeated contact can cause dermatitis, defatting. Skin contact may result in dermal absorption of component(s) of this product which may cause blurred vision, central nervous system depression.
EYE CONTACT: Irritation of eyes. Prolonged or repeated contact can cause conjunctivitis, blurred vision, tearing of eyes, redness of eyes.
INGESTION: Ingestion may cause lung inflammation and damage due to aspiration of material into lungs, mouth and throat irritation, mucous membrane irritation, fatigue, dizziness and/or lightheadedness, headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, gastro-intestinal disturbances, abdominal pain, central nervous system depression, intoxication, difficulty of breathing, convulsions. loss of consciousness.

Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: Eye, skin, respiratory disorders, lung disorders.
Chronic Health Effects: From MSDS
Prolonged inhalation may lead to loss of appetite, mucous membrane irritation, fatigue, drowsiness, dizziness and/or lightheadedness, headache, uncoordination, nausea, vomiting, chest pain, coughing, central nervous system depression, intoxication, anesthetic effect or narcosis, difficulty of breathing, allergic response, asthmatic reaction, severe lung irritation or damage, liver damage, kidney damage, pulmonary edema, convulsions, pneumoconiosis, loss of consciousness, asphyxiation. Possible sensitization to respiratory tract. Prolonged or repeated skin contact can cause dermatitis, defatting. Skin contact may result in dermal absorption of component(s) of this product which may cause blurred vision, central nervous system depression.
Prolonged or repeated eye contact can cause conjunctivitis, blurred vision, tearing of eyes, redness of eyes.

This product contains crystalline silica which is considered a hazard by inhalation. Crystalline silica is a known cause of silicosis, a noncancerous lung disease.

Contains a chemical that is moderately toxic by inhalation. NOTICE- Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. Intentional misuse by deliberately concentrating and inhaling the contents may be harmful or fatal.
Carcinogenicity: From MSDS
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has evaluated ethylbenzene and classified it as a possible human carcinogen (Group 2B) based on sufficient evidence for carcinogenicity in experimental animals, but inadequate evidence for cancer in exposed humans. In a 2-year inhalation study conducted by The National Toxicology program (NTP), ethylbenzene vapor at 750 ppm produced kidney and testicular tumors in rats and lung and liver tumors in mice. The relevance of these results to humans is not known.

IARC has classified cobalt and certain cobalt compounds as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B). Injection of metallic cobalt, cobalt alloys, and certain cobalt compounds has resulted in the development of localized tumors in laboratory animals.
First Aid: From MSDS
INHALATION: Remove to fresh air. Restore and support continued breathing. Get emergency medical attention. Have trained person give oxygen if necessary. Get medical help for any breathing difficulty. Remove to fresh air if inhalation causes eye watering, headaches, dizziness, or other discomfort.
SKIN: Flush from skin with water. Then wash thoroughly with soap and water. Remove contaminated clothing. Wash contaminated clothing before re-use.
