PREVENT STATIC SPARKING
FIRE/EXPLOSIONS
Vapors created when spraying can be ignited by sparks.
To reduce the risk of fire, always locate the sprayer at least 20 feet (6 m.) away
from spray area. Do not plug in or unplug any electrical cords in the spray area.
Doing so can cause sparks which can ignite any vapors still in the air. Follow the
coating & solvent manufacturers safety warnings and precautions.
