epoxy installation

When installing epoxy, ensure adequate ventilation, especially in confined areas. Use only where airflow will keep vapors from building up in or near the work area. All equipment should be non-sparking and explosion proof. Use explosion proof electrical equipment for ventilation, lighting and material handling. Comply with all national, state, and local codes pertaining to the storage, handling, dispensing and disposal of flammable liquids. [1] [3] [4] [8] [12] [15]

For personal protective equipment, wear tightly fitting safety goggles or safety glasses with side-shields. Also wear long-sleeved clothing and protective gloves. If splashes are likely to occur, wear appropriate protection. In operations where exposure limits are exceeded, use a NIOSH approved respirator that has been selected by a technically qualified person for the specific work conditions. When spraying the product or applying in confined areas, wear a NIOSH approved respirator specified for paint spray or organic vapors. [1] [2] [3] [4] [6] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [16] [17] [18]

To avoid ignition of vapors by static electricity discharge, all metal parts of the equipment must be grounded. Keep away from heat, sparks and flame. Do not smoke. Extinguish all flames and pilot lights, and turn off stoves, heaters, electric motors and other sources of ignition during use and until all vapors are gone. Ignition and/or flash back may occur.

Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Remove and wash contaminated clothing before re-use. Wash thoroughly after handling. [2] [6] [7] [9] [10] [11] [13] [16] [17]
