SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE                                         

7.1 HANDLING
For industrial or professional use only. Avoid breathing of dust created by
sanding, grinding or machining. Damaged product can break apart during use and
cause serious injury to face or eyes. Check product for damage such as cracks
or nicks prior to use. Replace if damaged. Always wear eye and face protection
when working at or sanding or grinding operations or when near such operations.
Sparks and particles flying from the product during sanding or grinding can
cause injury and fire.

7.2 STORAGE
Store in a cool, dry place.


SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION                        

8.1 ENGINEERING CONTROLS
Provide appropriate local exhaust for cutting, grinding, sanding or
machining. Use general dilution ventilation and/or local exhaust ventilation to
control airborne exposures to below Occupational Exposure Limits and/or control
dust, fume, or airborne particles. If ventilation is not adequate, use
respiratory protection equipment.

8.2 PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT (PPE)
8.2.1 Eye/Face Protection
Avoid eye contact. To minimize the risk of injury to face and eyes, always wear
eye and face protection when working at sanding or grinding operations or when
near such operations.
The following eye protection(s) are recommended: Safety Glasses with side
                                                 shields.

8.2.2 Skin Protection
Avoid skin contact. Wear appropriate gloves to minimize risk of injury to skin
from contact with dust or physical abrasion from grinding or sanding.

8.2.3 Respiratory Protection
Avoid breathing of dust created by sanding, grinding or machining. Assess
exposure concentrations of all materials involved in the work process. Consider
material being abraded when determining the appropriate respiratory protection.
Select and use appropriate respirators to prevent inhalation overexposure.
Select one of the following NIOSH approved respirators based on airborne
concentration of contaminants and in accordance with OSHA regulations: Half
face piece or fullface air-purifying respirator with N95 particulate filters.
Consult the current 3M Respiratory Selection Guide for additional information
or call 1-800-243-4630 for 3M technical assistance.

National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) hazard ratings are designed for use
by emergency response personnel to address the hazards that are presented by
short-term, acute exposure to a material under conditions of fire, spill, or
similar emergencies. Hazard ratings are primarily based on the inherent
physical and toxic properties of the material but also include the toxic
properties of combustion or decomposition products that are known to be
generated in significant quantities.
