- Safety Precautions
After full curing, the product is physiologically harmless. Keep the resin and hardener away from the eyes, mouth and skin. Do not inhale vapors. Uncured mixture can cause irritation of the skin. The best precaution is to wear safety protective gloves, overall, mask and goggles while working. Skin contamination should be immediately cleaned with soap and plenty of water. The use of solvents should be avoided. If resin or hardener splashes into the eyes, wash immediately with running water. A Doctor must be visited in all cases. Forced ventilation should be provided when working with solvents, etc.
