Handling/Disposal
|
|---|
From MSDS Use barrier creams, gloves, boots and clothing to protect the skin from prolonged contact with plastic concrete. Particularly avoid abrasion of the skin in contact with unhardened plastic concrete. Precautions must be observed because cement burns occur with little warning - little heat is sensed. Eye protection is not generally required except when placing methods cause splash, when tight-fitting goggles should be used.
|
From MSDS Material can be returned to container for later use, or it can be disposed of as common waste.
