Use of Product D/2 Biological Solution is an easy-to-use liquid that aids in the removal of a broad spectrum of soils. It is designed for use on outdoor sculpture, monuments, decorative fountains, stone, brick, terra cotta, concrete, stucco, and other architectural surfaces.

Section 2: HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION

D/2 Biological Solution is a colorless liquid with a very faint detergent-like odor.

It is non-flammable, non-combustible, non-explosive, and non-reactive.

Hazard Rating (NFPA/HMIS) Rating Scale

Health = 1* Reactivity = 0 0 = Minimal 1 = Slight 2 = Moderate

Fire = 0 Special = 0 3 = Serious 4 = Severe

* Mild eye irritant, non-mutagenic and non-carcinogenic

Eye Contact:

Skin Contact:

Ingestion:

Inhalation:

Carcinogens:

Medical Conditions:

Eye Irritant.

Prolonged skin contact with D/2 Biological Solution may irritate the skin. Repeated daily application to the skin without rinsing, or continuous contact of D/2 Biological Solution on the skin may lead to irritation.

Essentially non-toxic. May cause stomach or intestinal upset if swallowed.

No adverse effects expected under typical use conditions. Adequate ventilation should be present when using D/2 Biological Solution over a prolonged period of time. Open windows or ventilate via fan or other air-moving equipment if necessary. Mucous membranes may become irritated by concentrate mist.

No ingredients are listed by OSHA, IARC, or NTP as known or suspected carcinogens.

No medical conditions are known to be aggravated by exposure to D/2 Biological Solution.

Section 4: FIRST AID MEASURES (cont.)

If Inhaled: Use in well-ventilated area, or use adequate protection from inhaling mist during spray applications. Prolonged exposure of workers to concentrate-mist during spray application may cause mild irritation of nasal passages or throat.

If this happens, relocate workers to fresh air.

If Ingested: Give several glasses of milk or water to dilute; do not induce vomiting. If stomach upset occurs, consult physician.

Section 5: FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES Extinguishing Media: Not flammable/non-explosive. No special procedures required.
