SAFETY & HANDLING: RESINS, HARDENERS, SOLVENTS
- Keep all resins, hardware and solvents out of the reach of children.
- Always work in well-ventilated areas.
- Safety goggles, gloves and respirators should always be worn when handling resins, hardeners and solvents. Avoid contact with the skin.
- Harmful if swallowed – consult a physician immediately.
- If polyester or epoxy resins or hardeners should splash in your eyes, rinse eyes repeatedly with water and call a physician immediately.
- Never use or store resins, solvents or hardeners near open flame. Do not smoke when working with these materials.
- We strongly recommend that an organic vapor respirator be worn when using poly-ester or epoxy resin. However, it is mandatory to wear a respirator when working inside a mold or in confined areas, even though good general ventilation is provided.
- Dust masks and safety goggles should always be worn when grinding or sanding cured fiberglass laminate.
- Uncured resin spills should be absorbed with sawdust or other absorbent material. The surface can then be cleaned immediately with hot water and detergent.
- A clean, neat, well-organized work area is generally a safe work area.
