Section 8 – Individual protection measures

Engineering controls

• Provide adequate ventilation using local exhaust and good general extraction. If these are not sufficient to keep solvent vapour and particulates below occupational exposure limits, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
• During spray application in spray booths, operators may need compressed air-fed respiratory protection until vapour and particulate concentrations fall below exposure limits.

Respiratory protection

• If workers may be exposed above the exposure limits, use a respirator conforming to EN 140 fitted with a combined particulate and vapour filter to EN14387 (for example, type A2P3) with an assigned protection factor of at least 10.
• When dry sanding, flame cutting or welding on the dry paint film, use suitable respiratory protection if local exhaust ventilation is not sufficient.

Hand protection

• Use chemical-resistant gloves tested according to EN 374 for repeated or prolonged contact.
• Nitrile gloves provide good protection during spray application.
• Viton gloves offer good protection for intense solvent contact (e.g. complete immersion).
• Polyethylene (PE) gloves can be used as under-gloves in difficult situations such as high exposure or unknown chemical properties.
• Follow glove manufacturer instructions for use, storage, maintenance and replacement; replace gloves regularly and immediately when damaged.

Eye and face protection

• Use safety eyewear tested according to EN 16321 or EN 166, designed to protect against liquid splashes.

Skin and body protection

• Wear anti-static clothing made of natural fibre or high temperature resistant synthetic fibre (EN ISO 13688).

Environmental exposure control

• Do not allow the product to enter drains or watercourses.
