Painting crew and nearby workers
Ventilation and exposure control
Separately assess atmosphere and respiratory protection needs in enclosed areas
Fire or explosion
Personnel in work area
Ignition-source control and suitable storage
Keep quantities of flammable material at the work area to a minimum
Dizziness, respiratory effects or poisoning
Painters and nearby workers
Ventilation, SDS and suitable respiratory protection
Assess exposure levels in enclosed areas
Fire or explosion
Painting crew and nearby personnel
Ignition-source control and suitable storage
Physically control ignition sources around the painting area
Irritation or chemical injury
