near heat, sparks, flame, or other ignition sources. Use
mechanical ventilation whenever product is used in a
confined space, heated above ambient temperatures, or
agitated. Keep container sealed when not in use.
Contact with Skysol 100 may cause skin irritation. Use
chemical-resistant gloves. In case of skin contact, remove
any contaminated clothing and wash skin thoroughly
with soap and water. Wash contaminated clothing before
reuse. Eye contact may cause irritation, tearing, or
blurring of vision. Use face shield or goggles when eye
contact may occur. In case of eye contact, flush eye with
large amounts of water for at least 15 minutes or until
irritation subsides. Inhalation may cause irritation to
upper respiratory passages. DO NOT have food or drink
in the vicinity. Failure to comply may result injury to
personnel.

Dirt, grease, oil, and debris may cover up a serious
problem. Clean as you check. Follow precautions printed
on container. Use Skysol 100 solvent to clean metal
surfaces. Use soap and water to clean rubber and plastic.
Inspection of the following items is required each time PMCS is done. Verify visually
that all parts are in good operational condition.
