IV. SPECIAL HANDLING AND WORKER PRECAUTIONS FOR STORAGE AND FIELD APPLICATION
1. Flammability:
Non-flammable until >170ºF
2. Ventilation:
Handle in a well ventilated space. Local exhaust is recommended if TLV’s are exceeded.
3. Skin and eye contact; protective clothing; treatment in case of contact:
Avoid eye and (sensitive) skin contact. In case of contact, immediately flush with large amount of cool water of at least 5 minutes. Wear protective eye goggles when using any chemicals. Impermeable protective gloves are recommended for sensitive skin types. Protective clothing is not required. Rinse contaminated clothing, shoes, goggles, and gloves in simple tap water to remove any chemical residue. Avoid ingestion, breathing dusts, mists, or fumes. In case of ingestion drink several glasses of water. Do not induce vomiting. In case of inhalation, move affected person to fresh air.
4.a. Maximum storage temperature: 160ºF
4.b. Minimum storage temperature: -8ºF
4.c. Optimum storage temperature range: 40ºF – 110ºF
4.d. Temperatures of phase separations and chemical changes: No phase separations will occur.
V. SHELF LIFE
Unlimited if left in unopened containers stored at 40º - 110ºF and away from direct sunlight.
VI. RECOMMENDED APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Application Method:
SHEEN-MAGIC© recommended treatment is light misting of contaminated surface. Heavier hydrocarbons such as crude oil should be boomed or vacuumed away as much as possible before application of the SHEEN-MAGIC©. Treatment of fouled beach areas should have SHEEN-MAGIC© sprayed on all contaminated surfaces. Incidental wave action or rainfall will enhance coverage and penetration by SHEEN-MAGIC©. Any remaining hydrocarbons may then be effectively vacuumed or wiped away from the treated surfaces. Aerial application should be delivered at height and air speed that will create air shear necessary to deliver droplets as per nozzle manufacturer’s recommendations. Mist spray from surface vehicles may be delivered from power fogger units. Hand sprayers are generally used for small treatment areas.
2. Concentration/Application Rate:
One ounce per 50 square yards of surface is the normal treatment for diesel spills. Heavier hydrocarbon sheens may require additional treatment to remove the contaminant.
3. Conditions for Use:
SHEEN-MAGIC© works in all weather conditions that allow hydrocarbon penetration. SHEEN-MAGIC© should be used as soon as the temperature and weather conditions allow delivery to the spill area. Heavier concentrations may be required when the temperature/humidity will cause rapid evaporation of the spray.
