Skin Contact: May cause irritation, seen as localized reddening and swelling. Prolonged or repeated exposures to this material may cause redness, burning and drying and cracking of the skin. No specific data is available on dermal toxicity. Absorption as from prolonged or massive skin contact may result in toxicity.
Eye Contact: May cause reversible eye irritation with reddening and swelling of the conjunctiva, excess tear production, and excess blinking.
Ingestion: Swallowing may cause gastrointestinal disturbances including irritation, abdominal pain, belching, nausea, vomiting, frequent loose stools and diarrhea. Ingestion of large quantities may cause harmful central nervous system effects similar to those listed under "Inhalation." This material is an aspiration hazard; product can enter the lungs during swallowing or vomiting and cause lung inflammation and damage.

From MSDS
Reports have associated repeated and prolonged over exposure to petroleum distillates with adverse liver, kidney and bone marrow effects and with permanent brain and nervous system damage.

From MSDS
None of the ingredients is listed as a carcinogen or potential carcinogen by IARC, NTP or OSHA. This product contains kerosene. Repetitive direct skin application of kerosene over a two year period resulted in skin cancer in laboratory animals. Petroleum hydrocarbons of similar composition and boiling ranges have been known to produce kidney damage and tumors in male rats following prolonged inhalation exposure.
